Why are Think Talent’s INSPIRE, APEX, and Coaching programmes better than other courses in Malta?

Think Talent programmes are designed around capability, application, and business impact, not just attendance or certification. Unlike many competitors that deliver short, theory-heavy workshops, Think Talent offers a structured drip learning approach, accredited programmes that embed learning into real workplace challenges and leadership responsibilities.

Each programme is purpose-built for a specific career stage, ensuring relevance, progression, and measurable return on investment for both individuals and businesses alike.

APEX and INSPIRE are accredited leadership development programmes, while the Award in Coaching Skills at the Workplace is a specialist programme focused specifically on workplace coaching capability.
