You may also be interested in courses organised by UKeiG (formerly UKOLUG). These cover a wide range of subjects relating to electronic information, are reasonably priced and often held outside of London. Many include practical sessions.

Manchester Business School offer a variety of one and half day seminars and workshops on business and management research techniques.

Also in the North-West of England is NoWAL (North West Academic Libraries). NoWAL runs a regular training and development programme and courses are open to those who work outside of NoWAL.
