Bottom-Line Training From Quantum Associates

Did you know that studies indicate 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 help achieve financial results.

We address your concerns with our on-site training workshops. Our workshops 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 workshops are affordable and saves you the travel costs associated with having  your employees attending off-site training.

What is the cost for our on-site workshops?

  •  1 day workshops - $2800.00
  •  2 day workshops - $5300.00
  •  3 day workshops - $7500.00

What is the recommended class size for our on-site workshops?

Because most of our training workshops are interactive we usually limit the number of participants for one instructor to a maximum of 15 participants. This is especially true for many of our Lean workshops. Some of our other workshops will accommodate more than 15. Please contact us for details.

What about geography?

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