We are confined to thinking about how we adapt our current means of negotiating to a new environment, so let’s turn the whole thing inside out and think about how video conferencing platforms empower us to do things differently.
EXPERIENCE OUR VIRTUAL OR FACE-TO-FACE SKILLS TRAINING
Our Advancing Negotiation Skills course launches tens of thousands of people into negotiation training every year.

Tailored for your business needs, V.A.N.S. teaches how to negotiate professionally, ethically and successfully. It gives your people the control and confidence to side-step hazards, seize the initiative and deploy creative techniques to land the best deal. All this happens in an online learning environment that’s inspiring, hands-on, team-spirited and fun
V.A.N.S. takes a practical approach to skills building. 80% of time is devoted to virtual case-play exercises and 20% to lecture-style teaching. Each case-play recreates a typical conflict scenario. Participants work in teams to find a resolution using different negotiation techniques. Each course module includes a short lecture, preparation, case-plays and follow-up video analysis. V.A.N.S. training comes with a choice of two timetables, either as a single 2.5-day course or as four 5-6 hour sessions spread over one or two weeks
The V.A.N.S. course is hosted by expert Scotwork coaches with many years of in-the-field negotiation experience. They critique case-plays in real time, deliver instant, incisive feedback and give on-the-spot guidance. With a tutor-to-trainee ratio of just 1:6, every participant is guaranteed plenty of high quality, one-on-one coaching
V.A.N.S. takes the classroom to the desktop and brings negotiation to life in a safe, virtual environment for easier learning and practice. It saves the time and cost of team travel and accommodation, gives you the flexibility of training your people in out-of-office locations and offers your negotiators the convenience of learning critical negotiating skills at home. All the skills your teams learn virtually on V.A.N.S. are transferrable and can be applied in face-to-face negotiations as well
