In the UK, public speaking is a top fear after spiders. While we can't help with spiders, this program boosts confidence and clarity in speaking. Many struggle with public speaking, which can limit careers as presentations are key in professional life. Gain confidence in meetings and presentations, especially in the fleet industry. Join a supportive, inclusive environment to grow at your pace. This course is run by the BVRLA but is powered by the AFP.

Course Content
CONFIDENCE – Explore the key elements that shape genuine confidence, from the way you carry yourself and use body language to how you communicate your ideas. Learn to recognise and harness your unique strengths so you can present yourself with assurance in any situation.
COURAGE – Uncover the beliefs or internal narratives that may be holding you back. This module helps you reframe your inner critic, challenge self-doubt, and reduce fear, empowering you to step outside your comfort zone with a renewed sense of bravery and self-trust.
CLARITY – Learn how to refine your message so it is clear, concise, and compelling. Whether you’re sharing a personal story or delivering an important point, you’ll develop the skills to ensure your audience understands the heart of what you want to communicate.
CONTENT – Build a practical, repeatable structure for crafting your message. This framework allows you to bring your own style and personality to your delivery while shaping content that resonates with your specific audience.
Learning Outcomes
We want everyone to feel genuinely equipped when it comes to speaking in front of others. Whether it’s presenting to clients, leading team briefings, or sharing your insights at events, you should be able to step forward with confidence, courage, and a clear message.
This programme has been created to help you do exactly that. Rather than treating public speaking as something only a few people are naturally good at, we break it down into practical skills that anyone can learn. You’ll uncover what helps you feel more confident, how to quiet the doubts that hold you back, and how to shape your ideas so they land with real impact.
Throughout the course, you’ll build a toolkit you can rely on again and again—a straightforward way to structure your content, refine your delivery, and adapt your style to different audiences. These are techniques you’ll be able to put into practice immediately and continue improving as you grow in your role.
By the end, you’ll not only understand how to become a stronger communicator—you’ll feel ready to step up, speak out, and make your message heard.
