Professional Development

For Organisations and Their Members

Cockpit’s professional development programmes are trusted by partners who support creative talent.

Cockpit has a reputation for excellence, and our professional development programmes are recognised internationally.

We know that there are key ingredients that help makers to succeed:

The right coaching and delivery style
Deep-rooted sector knowledge and proven experience
Understanding and empathy for the micro/small business model
Community support and learning

Due to our tailored approach, makers feel seen, heard, and supported – and empowered to take bold steps in their creative journey.

Organisations can purchase seats on our programmes or commission a bespoke workshop package, created to align with the needs of your members and budget.
