Post-training Course Workshops

​

Background

​

Based on our long experience in training and consulting services, many corporate clients, having the best intentions, sent their staff members to attend training courses and become certified in various business disciplines and knowledge domains.

​

A common outcome we have witnessed over time is that, although staff members do attend and complete the training and become certified there is no plan in place about:

• The "next steps", post-classroom training and certification towards "qualification" of the new Practitioners.

• How the business, that invested money and employees' time away from work, will receive its "Return on the Investment" (ROI) in the form of "hard" (financial) benefits.

​

Purpose

​

The purpose of the workshops is to provide the opportunity to corporate clients' employees, who have been trained and certified in a business discipline or knowledge domain, to practice in a project environment what they learned in the classroom.

 

This will help in two ways:

• Support the trained employees to transition from being "certified" towards being "qualified", when they start adding value to the business through managing business change and improvement projects or contributing as team members in such projects

• During the process of participating in projects and practising their new skills, the projects will start delivering business benefits towards "Return on Investment" most likely in the form of process, product and service efficiencies. This will result in operating cost reduction, which adds to the bottom line.

Service Features

 

Our post-classroom workshops are typically:

·         Conducted in virtual classroom instructor-led environment

·         Based on case studies, which simulate real world projects.

 

• Such business benefits could:

  • Derive from, e.g., successful completion of change projects managed by the "trained and qualified" Practitioners after handing-over the project deliverables to BAU (day-to-day operations)

  • The benefits to the business can be measured over the agreed "benefits realisation period", that commences as soon as the projects have been formally closed.

We support two workshop scenarios:

 

• This could be supported by the business through e.g. assigning the trained practitioners in relevant business change projects

• Such engagement could help them practice what they have learned in the classroom and fine-tune their new skills
