Its stunning and varied architecture includes The Liver Building at the Pier Head and its two Cathedrals. It is a very accessible location making it a good choice for a range of project management training courses.

Transport

Liverpool John Lennon Airport is considered to be one of the major transport hubs in the Northwest, it is connected to over 70 destinations in Europe, Africa and across the UK, and a short bus ride makes it easy to get from the airport to the city centre. The main train station in Liverpool is the Iconic Liverpool Lime Street Station which is a central hub for trains from all over the country, there are regular trains from Birmingham, Newcastle, Manchester and London, to name just a few. Liverpool is also easy to get to by car with some very good motorway links: the M60 links Liverpool to Manchester, and from the M60, it is linked to the south via the M5 and the north via the M6.
