COURSE METHODOLOGY
Our Training programs are implemented by combining the participants' academic knowledge and practical practice (30% theoretical / 70% practical activities).
At The end of the training program, Participants are involved in practical workshop to show their skills in applying what they were trained for. A detailed report is submitted to each participant and the training department in the organization on the results of the participant's performance and the return on training. Our programs focus on exercises, case studies, and individual and group presentations.
Since 2001, we have been pioneering the training field in the middle east, we managed to unlock potential and help individuals, teams and organisations to be the best that they can be with our full and integrated solutions.
