Who are we?

Transition Training is a dedicated training organisation specialising in the fields of Information and Communications Technology and Peace and Reconciliation. The company was founded in April 2004 by its two principle directors Sheena Clegg and Francis Higgins as a direct response to the opportunities offered by the gaps in training provision in the cross community sectors. The company has designed and developed a range of innovative courses using 'state of the art' Internet and mobile computing technologies, such as the Exploring Diversity Course, Back 2 the Future and 'Road to Reconciliation.' The company is limited under guarantee with accompanying articles of association at the registered address of the company on the Cregagh Road, however the company effectively trades from the operational headquarters of Transition Training at their Downshire Place training suites.
