Invest in your people and grow your organizations
Leading experts in their fields provide timely and relevant local government specific training, creating a common language and philosophy throughout your entire organization.
Current Styles of Training + Professional Development Aren’t Working…
- It’s expensive – 1 or 2 days of in-person training can quickly swallow up your entire training budget
- It doesn’t stick – With little to no follow-up and ongoing support, staff walk away with knowledge that they rarely put into practice
- It’s time-consuming – Registering your department (or most of it) into full or half-day training courses means big losses for productivity and work plans
- It’s inconsistent – And if only some of your staff attend the in-person training, it’ll be impossible to get the benefits of implementing what they’ve learned because there won’t be a same page for everyone to get on
