The full curriculum run against your own documents, for up to twelve people, at a fixed fee of 30,000 EUR for the engagement. Most instructions arrive as an extension of an existing retainer; the remainder arrive as a standalone booking. Either way, participants leave holding a numbered document they wrote, not a certificate stating they attended.
The Workshop is the Two-day intensive named on the curriculum page, run as a single engagement: a fixed fee, a capped room, and an ending in which every seat is holding a document it produced rather than one stating that it attended. It opens two ways, priced identically, both covered below.
All six modules run across the two days, in sequence, against documents the room itself supplies rather than a generic set.
The live audit is conducted against one document the client has already published. The mark-up is conducted against one contract the client is currently a party to. Both are selected at intake, not on the day, so the room spends its two days working rather than choosing.
From a standing retainer. The more common path. An organisation already on the Standing Retainer has had its incoming documents read within forty-eight hours of arrival for a run of engagement cycles, and by the time the instruction reaches us the client can usually name the finding that keeps recurring and the function that keeps producing it. Most of these instructions arrive after the retainer has run about half a year, at the point where the request changes from “read this for us” to “teach us to read it ourselves.” The live audit is then run against a document the client has already seen pass through the retainer, so participants can check their own findings against the ones already on file.
As a standalone instruction. Rarer, and slower to close. Without an existing document relationship, the buyer is asked to commit two days and twelve seats to a method it has not yet seen applied to its own paper, which lengthens the sales cycle relative to a retainer extension. The fee, the modules and the output are identical to the retainer path. The difference is sourcing: the audit document and the contract are supplied by the client at intake rather than drawn from a file we already hold.
The Workshop is scoped tightly on purpose. Anything outside the following belongs to one of the other three formats.
| Item | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Workshop fee | Fixed, per engagement, two days | 30,000 EUR |
| Participants | Up to twelve, no per-seat charge to that limit | Included |
| Materials | Full six-module documentation set, one per participant | Included |
| Live audit | One published client document, marked up in session | Included |
| Contract mark-up | One client contract, annotated in session | Included |
| Output | Numbered defect list, produced individually by each participant | Included |
| Retainer-linked booking | Same fee, no separate rate | 30,000 EUR |
| Fee per participant, at full capacity | 30,000 EUR divided by twelve | 2,500 EUR |
| Fee per day | 30,000 EUR divided by two | 15,000 EUR |
| Thirteenth participant | Not offered; a second sitting is scheduled instead | N/A |
On the fee. There is one price for the Workshop, run through either entry path. We do not discount the retainer path against the standalone one: the work inside the room is the same two days regardless of how the instruction arrived, and pricing it differently would price the sales process rather than the delivery.</div>
The audience table on the curriculum page lists six groups; a single Workshop seats up to twelve people, and a room works best when it is drawn from one or two of those groups rather than all six, because the live audit and the contract mark-up use documents native to the room’s own function. A board and its audit committee read the same annual report. A negotiations team and the founders it advises read the same term sheet. A compliance function and the procurement team it supports do not always read the same document, and a room that mixes them tends to spend part of its two days establishing which document to use rather than working on it.
Retainer-linked bookings do not have this problem: the document history already exists, and the room composition is set from it rather than negotiated at intake.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1. Instruction | Retainer clients raise it with their existing contact. Standalone clients open a scoping call. |
| 2. Document selection | The audit document and the contract to be marked up are agreed and confirmed in writing. |
| 3. Room composition | Seats are allocated, up to twelve, drawn from one or two functions where possible. |
| 4. Dates | Two consecutive days are fixed against the trainer’s calendar and the room’s. |
| 5. Delivery | The curriculum runs as scoped above. |
| 6. Handover | Each participant leaves with their own numbered defect list. |
Engagements begin with a scoping call for standalone instructions, and with the existing retainer contact for organisations already on one. There is no online booking form and no deposit taken on this page: dates are confirmed in writing once the document selection at step two is settled, because the two days are built around the documents chosen there, not around a generic syllabus.
