Our highly acclaimed workshops
teach important skills and challenge students with exercises similar to real work assignments. Our short workshops (approximately 6 hours long and usually occurring in one day) include quick projects and offer students a small amount of feedback. Our longer workshops (14 or more hours long, occurring over several days) are designed to follow the short workshops and give students experience with larger, more complex projects. Students in these workshops receive significant amounts of individual feedback and tutoring.
Want us to focus on topics especially relevant to your work environment or include assignments representative of your actual work tasks? Ask us to customize our longer workshops to meet your requirements.
Need to learn but don't have time for classes? Consider our mentorship program where our instructors combine the work of consultants and mentors to help your staff solve your problems and to learn skills and approaches that they can apply to later projects when they work on their own.
