The quality of employees and their development through training and education are major factors in determining long-term profitability of a small business. If you hire and keep good employees, it is good policy to invest in the development of their skills, so they can increase their productivity.
Training often is considered for new employees only. This is a mistake because ongoing training for current employees helps them adjust to rapidly changing job requirements. We offer seminars and workshops to help you start, or improve your business operations. We focus on issues that impact small business operators from high level business plan writing to daily operational issues such as customer retention. Attendance is limited to 10 – 15 people each program (ESPECIALLY FOR THE HIGHER PROGRAMS). Employee training workshops are also offered.
The model below traces the steps necessary in the training process:

Our Training Methods include:
On-the-job training is delivered to employees while they perform their regular jobs.
Off-the-job techniques include lectures, special study, films, television conferences or discussions, case studies, role playing, simulation, programmed instruction and laboratory training.
Your business should have a clearly defined strategy and set of objectives that direct and drive all the decisions made especially for training decisions. Firms that plan their training process are more successful than those that do not. Most business owners want to succeed, but do not engage in training designs that promise to improve their chances of success. This is where we come in to help you achieve your goals, and make your employees reach their potential.
