Effective Problem-Solving
$299.00Everyone experiences problems from time to time. Some of our problems are big and complicated, while others may be more easily solved. Oftentimes solving problems involves dealing with emotions either within ourselves or others. This is one of the main reasons why companies want employees who can effectively identify and solve problems. Effective problem solvers help their organizations operate more efficiently, be more innovative and deliver exceptional customer service, leading to improved job satisfaction and career development for the employee and higher performance for the organization. Regardless of their level of complexity, problems are part of life and work. Therefore, problem-solving can be considered a life skill. *Become a member to receive 20% off -

Measuring Training Results
$199.00There are lots of good reasons to offer training, and even more reasons to participate and take training. But there is also an accountability element, where we ask ourselves: - What was the value of that training? - Did we meet the objectives that were set out? - Did the training bring about some kind of lasting change in behavior? In this course, we’ll explore the essential elements in evaluating training and measuring results, while creating a process that is simple for trainers and human resource practitioners to implement. -

Developing Your Training Program
$199.00Training is an essential element of development in any organization. Being knowledgeable and continuing to learn throughout your career can make you a very valuable asset. We also know that training and orientation (or ‘onboarding’) for newly hired employees is a key factor in retention. In order for training to be valuable, the person that designs and plans the training must have an excellent understanding of what the training objectives are. In addition, if the trainer is able to research the strategic objectives of the company providing the training to their staff, what resources are available, and what elements of those plans can enhance the training experience, the entire experience is much more meaningful. At the same time, if a trainer is aware of any barriers that training could present (such as trainees being on call during a session, having to spread training over a long period of time, or trainees who are not accustomed to theory or classroom types of presentations), then the trainer can present a much stronger program that is tailored specifically to the participants’ needs. This course is designed for a trainer who wants to develop training programs that are meaningful, practical, and will benefit both trainees and the organizations they work for. -
Oral Communication
$399.00In the workplace, we communicate with each other in many different ways, from writing messages to using hand signals. One of the most common ways that we communicate in the workplace is by speaking with others. Good workplace communication skills are very important. The best communicators use strategies and techniques to get their message across. During this course, you will learn that using the tips and tools of successful workplace communication will be well worth your time and effort! -
Creative Thinking and Innovation
$250.00Creative thinking and innovation are vital components in both our personal and professional lives. However, many people feel as though they are lacking in creativity. What most of us do not recognize is that we are creative on a daily basis, whether it’s picking out what clothes to wear in the morning or stretching a tight budget at work. While these tasks may not normally be associated with creativity, there is a great deal of creativity involved to get those jobs done. While some people seem to be simply bursting with creativity, others find it a struggle to think outside the square. If you fall into the latter category, it is important to understand that boosting your creative and innovative abilities takes practice. Recognizing and honing your own creative potential is a process. That’s what this course is all about. -
