In-house training for engineering organisations
Most training teaches the method. Ours changes how your organisation delivers. Short sessions applied inside your real work, spread across weeks, until it sticks. Trusted by Boeing, Philips, and Lockheed Martin.
Where to start
If yours is here, the programmes and tracks below are built around it.
Certified practitioners, recurring missed commitments. The framework is understood; the organisation still can't forecast or trust its own estimates.
Start with the Practitioners trackDevelopment is busy, discovery is thin. Product owners are coordinating backlogs instead of shaping value, and teams are building what's asked, not what's needed.
Start with the Product Leaders trackVelocity is declining, quality incidents are climbing, and AI tools are landing in teams that can't safely use them yet. Engineering excellence can't wait.
Start with the Engineering trackThe process looks right on paper. Nobody can tell you why delivery feels unpredictable, or where to intervene first. The problem is systemic, not individual.
Start with the Leadership trackEngineering organisations that needed delivery to improve. Not just teams that needed training.
After a full day of training and a time-zone shift, they were still engaged, still asking questions, still figuring out how to make this stick. That tells me we've got something special happening here. CEO, UK insurance software company
Why immersive training pays back
A two-day course costs roughly the same as an immersive programme. The difference is what you get twelve weeks later. After a standard course, most capability fades within a month. Teams return to a backlog that built up while they were out, and new practices get deferred. Immersive training runs short sessions over several weeks, with each idea applied inside your real work between them. Capability builds incrementally and stays, because it was never separate from the job.
You practise with real artefacts and scenarios, not slides.
We work the real challenges your teams and products face.
Every model and tool is applied the same day.
We build on what you already know instead of arguing theory.
Immersive is our default, because it's the only format built to produce durable change. When schedules genuinely can't flex we also run staggered, full, and half-day classes, and we'll be straight about what each one trades off.

Your trainer
That means everything taught in the room was in use last week. Not last decade. I'm Martin Hinshelwood, and training is the smaller part of what I do, which is exactly why it's worth your team's time.
I've delivered training and advised leadership teams at Boeing, Philips, Lockheed Martin, and the UK Government's DWP, organisations where delivery failure has real operational consequences, not just retrospective awkwardness.
Every model I teach is one I still use with clients. That's why I can tell you where it works, where it breaks, and what to do when your situation doesn't match the textbook.
I'm a Professional Scrum Trainer with Scrum.org. The certification is the floor, not the ceiling. What matters is what your team does differently once they're back at work.

Choose your track
Choose by role. Bringing a mixed group? We'll design the right programme.
You run the events, manage the flow, and coach the team — and delivery still isn't as predictable as it should be. This track sharpens the daily craft of facilitation, flow, coaching, and improving how work actually gets done.
Your teams are busy, but what ships isn't landing with customers. For Product Owners and Product Managers turning strategy into an ordered backlog, aligned stakeholders, and value you can measure.
You've lived through a change effort that didn't stick. For those navigating resistance, designing change strategies, and sustaining adoption as teams and systems shift to new ways of working.
Delivery looks right on paper, but you can't see where to intervene. For senior leaders tackling the funding models, governance, culture, and evidence-based decisions that enable agile organisations at scale.
Velocity is falling, quality incidents are climbing, and the shortcuts are compounding. For developers and engineers rebuilding the technical practices behind agility — test-driven development, continuous integration, refactoring, and emergent design.
Your team ships, but it doesn't gel — unclear purpose, thin trust, no habit of improvement. For cross-functional groups building shared purpose, self-organisation, psychological safety, and the discipline of continuous improvement.
Programmes by level
If agile, Scrum, Kanban, or DevOps are new to you or your team, start here. No prior knowledge assumed — you'll build the working vocabulary and mental models everything else stands on.
You know the basics; now they have to survive contact with your real work. Practical application for people past the fundamentals — forecasting, backlogs, facilitation, and flow in your own context.
You've been doing this long enough that the easy problems are gone. In-depth practice for experienced practitioners working the hard parts — scale, metrics, stakeholders, and systems that resist change.
You're the one others come to for answers, and standard courses stopped helping a while ago. Expert-level work for practitioners, coaches, and leaders operating at organisational scale.
Frequently Asked Questions
If your question isn't here, ask us directly.
Most organisations don't need a course catalogue. They need a diagnosis. Tell me what's not working, who is involved, and what you've already tried. I'll tell you honestly whether training will help, and if so, what.
