Who can request training? Since time off the job for training must be approved by local management, we usually ask that your local VP authorize the training visit. But, we've seen requests start with a diligent supervisor who proposed the training and got it approved by her local management.
Where is training usually held? We normally visit the work site requesting the training.
What size audience can you accommodate? We have worked with audiences of all sizes from as few as 4 or 5 to as many as 30, limited mostly by room capacity.
What kind of room and equipment do you need? We need a room large enough to accommodate the anticipated audience. For equipment, we simply need a laptop connected to a projector, and a place to project. We've used white walls and actual screens. We're adaptable.
Who is the presenter? Currently, our primary presenter is Michael Shanahan.
What if we want training in a topic not listed? Ask us! Several of our existing presentations were created as a result of a specific topic request from a college audience.
