About Leeds

The third largest city in England, Leeds is located in the North of the country, in the heart of Yorkshire. If you are looking for a location to attend a project management training course, then Leeds is not only well appointed but has all the facilities and transport links you could need.

Transport

Leeds is serviced by a sturdy transport network, making it a very accessible city. Leeds Bradford Airport is just a short journey from the city centre and welcomes visitors from 70 different destinations. The port of Hull is just over an hour away by car and Leeds benefits from direct train links from across the country. Within the local area TransPennine provide local train travel options. Leeds is served by some very good motorway links, including the M1 which connects it to London, M62, and the M1-A1 link road; a strategic link between the M62 and M1. Once in Leeds, travelling around the city is very easy due to its robust bus network linking the city centre with the surrounding area. First Leeds operate in the city centre and Arriva operate buses to the surrounding area.

With project management courses lasting several days, finding suitable accommodation is a must. Fortunately, there are plenty of options here.

It makes a great base for attending project management training courses nearby.

Meeting rooms

Two of the hotels we have already mentioned in Leeds have large meeting room facilities that can be used for training courses, only the Quebecs does not. Whilst some people like to stay and do their training in the same hotel it is understandable that you may want to separate the two. Fortunately, there are plenty of other alternatives available.
