Commissioning new training suppliers?

20 Jan

What do you think when you try out a new training supplier for the first time?

Recently Learning and Development Manager at Leicester City Council, Pauline Matturi, decided that she was going to try out Emailogic training.

Emailogic were asked to deliver both email best practice and Outlook skills training to Council staff combined in a course which they promoted as “Techniques for Taming your Email”

Pauline was concerned about the take up of such a large rollout. However after the first sessions had been delivered she sent the following out to colleagues:

“Yesterday, as I watched Head of Service after Head of Service … and then the Director of ICT walk into the training room, I’ll be honest, I was sweating buckets about this new course I’d commissioned. I knew that it was good, practical and relevant stuff, but I wondered: “Suppose they hate it? Suppose they don’t learn one new thing?”

I needn’t have worried.

Not only did we receive fabulous feedback, but a series of senior managers came out saying how they felt everyone needed this short and snappy session… and could they have one just for their team! Word’s getting out that Techniques for Taming Your E-Mail is the latest hot course.

These are 120 minutes that are going to change the way you think and manage your e-mails.”

Pauline now has a waiting list which is growing fast!

If you are responsible for training the staff at your company and want to feel reassured that the courses you book for your teams will be a success, contact us today.

It might be the best training you commission this year.
