a reference tool for future use.

Our instructor Phillip was fantastic. He called before the course to get a good understanding of our requirements. On the day he asked the group what their aims were for the training and ensured all these aspects were covered. He managed to make
what many of us assumed was a "dry" training day interesting and very practical. It was excellent.

The facilitator was very energetic and knowledgeable on this and other relevant Microsoft software programs showing how the integration would assist our learning outcomes.

Was a great learning environment with a facilitator that really tries to make the course relevant to your needs but also interesting.

At the completion of training participants are encouraged to create an action plan, and invite an accountability buddy via their Orgmenta App.
In your Training Management Centre you have transparency to the action plans so you can see what people are going to do differently.
Our systems and people make it easy to identify how you’ll be able to measure impacts and then report on the success in the weeks or months after training.
It’s surprisingly easy to make it so that your system can automatically be up to date with all the training record details you need.
