About Nikie
Why should you listen to anything I have to say?...
Good call!
Hi there. There are lots of on-line courses and membership sites out there, and if you sign up to something and find out the tutor is a complete numpty or simply doesn't fit your own style, then you've wasted time and money, and no-one wants that!! So, here's a quick video for you..
The really important stuff:
I want to help you create a career in Training & Development!
The relevant nice to know stuff:
I've pretty much always worked as a Trainer or in L&D. Even when I didn't have the title of Trainer, I still managed to find a way of shoehorning it into my role. (Yep, even as an Interior Designer!)
In the last two decades, I have had many different job titles including:
Some of these titles have actually been for the same company, just as the role developed the title developed too!
The CV bit:
The personal stuff:
I 'm based in Hampshire, UK and live with my Husband, Son and Dog, oh and I drive a bright yellow Mini and love music.
... relevant to training!

Teresa Matthews ~ Training and Development Manager“I am currently working through a training session The Curious Trainer’s Academy provides to enable me to design my own training programme. The Curious Trainer’s Academy has supported my own development and Nikie continues to provide guidance. Her interactive and engaging approach on her training sessions covers all types of learning styles and also gives you the opportunity to try out and practice. Her bitesize learning approach is very easy to follow from a learner’s perspective. I can’t thank Nikie enough for all of her support and help in moulding me into the professional trainer I am today and would highly recommend having a chat with Nikie and enrolling on some of the courses. ”

Jo ~ Senior Team Leader“It has been an absolute privilege to have worked with you. Your sessions have been inspiring and I will take your learnings with me wherever I go. Over my career a few people have stood out for their positivity, professionalism, competence & you are one of these stand out individuals who has inspired me to move forward/grow.”
Brad Abery ~ Finance Director“I'm a seasoned trainer (much as yourself) with some 15 years' experience, and it's clear to me that you are an expert in your subject. I would recommend the 'Designing a Face-to-Face Training Session' course to anyone starting out in L&D as a way of getting an excellent grounding in relatively little time and without too much study or effort. A useful and enjoyable programme.”
