Editor's note
=============
There is so much excellent advice on hand in this week's
Insider, it's hard to know where to start. Pointers include how
to boost the popularity of training courses, how to combat
presentation nerves, plus a fantastic trainer's tip from Clive
Boorman, who shares his experience of induction courses that
cut attrition rates. But if you can't find the advice you are
looking for in this week's wire, why not post a question
yourself?
