Productivity Training Built for the Adult Learner

Each modular block is a self-contained topic that includes pre-work, a classroom session, application assignments, and application coaching. Modules are built to ensure the training sticks, behaviors change, and results are realized.

Pre-work is delivered via micro learning, video, and exercises that allow participants to learn key concepts prior to classroom sessions.

2. Collaborate & Practice

Highly interactive and collaborative classroom sessions, delivered virtually or in person, focus on practice, application, and feedback.

3. Reinforce & Apply

Micro learning and videos drive post-session reinforcement. Application Assignments allow sellers to apply new skills to live sales situations.

Between sessions, Application Coaching helps sellers refine skills and build confidence while being held accountable for on-the-job implementation.
