Exceptional presentation. The manner in which they were able to impart knowledge using real life examples and in class exercises was refreshing. Well done!

I have known Stuart for many years and consider him one of only a small handful of ‘true’ legal pricing professionals worldwide. The Legal Pricing Masterclass Stuart and Colin run is a highly practical and engaging 2-day course that covers everything from the basics right through to sophisticated strategic pricing approaches and everything in between, culminating in the individual development of relevant measures that attendees can implement at their organization as soon as they are back in the office.

The couple of days spent in the pricing masterclass had a very high ROI. The materials and takeaways were relatable and directly applicable, and the education was delivered in an efficient, organized, and focused manner.

I have attended a variety of training sessions for pricing professionals since 2008. None compares to the Pricing Masterclass. The content in extends well beyond the training that one typically receives in a one-day class. The practical approach to addressing some of the most challenging issues in professional services pricing is invaluable for any pricing professional. I highly recommend this class for any pricing professional, beginner or advanced.
