HRDQ's trained consultants bring specialized expertise and an outside perspective that can help identify issues that may not be apparent to employees within an organization. Our team of consultants will provide focused and dedicated attention to the concerns you have and ensure that the team is equipped with the tools and confidence to make the desired changes for optimal success.
By keeping the class size small, at 20 or fewer participants, each individual receives personalized training reinforced by interactive experiential activities so the learning sticks.
Virtual instructor-led training (ILT) classes are delivered online, so no travel is required, making it a convenient option for organizations. Your learners will need basic technology, including a computer, webcam, and a good internet connection. The use of a webcam is strongly encouraged but not mandatory.
We can also come to you! Enhance relationships face-to-face with our onsite ILT classes, delivered at a location of your choice. Onsite ILT training can be particularly beneficial for teams looking to engage in collaborative learning activities in a familiar setting. (Travel time for our consultants is billed separately.)
Take a look at our collection of instructor-led training! With over 90 courses to choose from covering a variety of topics, you're sure to find a solution for your training needs.
