What does in-house social media training cost?

The short answer

At Bristol Social Media Academy, a one-day in-house course costs £650 for one person, £950 for up to three people and £1,250 for up to five. Our 12-week Accelerator, with three in-house sessions, three video call check-ins and WhatsApp support between sessions, costs £3,495 paid in full or three monthly payments of £1,200. Travel and any extra requirements are confirmed before you book.

Larger groups are quoted on request.

What changes the price

• How many people attend. A small group shares one day, so the cost per person falls as the team grows.
• A day or ongoing coaching. A day teaches a skill. Coaching adds practice, feedback and accountability over weeks, which takes more time to deliver.
• Where you are. We train at your workplace anywhere in the UK. Longer journeys can add travel costs, which we confirm before booking.
• How tailored it is. Every session is built around your business, your products and your team's starting point.

A training day or ongoing coaching: which does your team need?

Choose a one-day course when you have one clear skill gap, such as filming and editing on a phone or planning what to post, and someone who will put it into practice straight away. Start with the Content Creation Masterclass or Content Strategy & Creative Ideas.

Choose the 3-Month Accelerator when the problem is consistency. Teams often leave a good training day full of ideas, then lose momentum once the week gets busy. Twelve weeks of practice, reviews and feedback help the content owner build a routine they can run independently.

How to get the most from the fee

• Name one person who owns content, and make sure they attend.
• Protect about two hours a week for filming and editing after the training.
• Decide what you want content to do, such as filling quieter days, launching a product or recruiting staff.
• Plan your first month of posts before the trainer leaves.

Training or outsourcing?

Training builds the skill inside your business, so your team can keep making content without paying for every post. If you would rather have content made for you, a freelancer or agency is the better fit, and we will tell you so. Training works best when someone on your team wants to do the work and has time to practise.
