A series of practical workshops for business people in Moray Badenoch and Strathspey has sold out in record time.

Offering advice and guidance on how to put theory into practice, the "Setting Sail for Success" programme, organised by Moray Badenoch and Strathspey Enterprise, is designed to help develop personal skills needed to ensure a business stays on course.

Although the workshops are fully subscribed, places are still available on two allied "Sailing With Confidence" masterclasses.

The first free masterclass takes place next Thursday (15th January) at the Cairngorm Hotel, Aviemore, at 6.30pm for 7pm. The second is being held at Elgin City Football Stadium on Thursday 22nd January, again at 6.30pm for 7pm.
