Bottom-Line Training From Quantum Associates

Did you know that studies have found that as much as 50% of the training today is not transferred back to the job, resulting in a monumental waste of resources?

Training and Development professionals and department managers not only are  interested in developing their people but making sure training is on target in terms of effectiveness and achieving desired results. Effectiveness is measured by how well your employees transfer the concepts to the job and helps achieve financial and strategic results.

We address your concerns with our on-site  training courses. Our courses are interactive and filled with application activities…the “teach and do” approach. We have found that this approach prepares your employees to apply what they learn back on the job. Our on-site  training is affordable and saves you the travel costs associated with having your employees attending off-site training.

 

 

 

 


 

What is the cost for on-site training?

  • 1 day workshops -        $2800.00

  • 2 day workshops -        $5300.00

  • 3 day  workshops -       $7500.00


What is the recommended class size for on-site training?

Because our Lean training courses are interactive, the optimal size for one instructor is 15 participants or less.

What are the minimum classroom requirements?

The classroom should comfortably fit the class size, have a white board, an LCD projector (connectable to a laptop), and screen, a flip chart and markers.

  Location is not a problem we travel worldwide to serve our clients. We have trained client teams in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.
