ADULT & CORPORATE TRAINING

CORPORATE TRAINING COURSES

"Our key professionals have embraced Edward de Bono's creative techniques. They are having a profound impact on the quality of our thinking at IBM" Jack Smulowitz

You can have members of your staff trained and accredited (see training of trainers) to give in-house training in Lateral Thinking, Six Thinking Hats, Creativity  or DATT (Direct Attention Thinking Tools). Alternatively you can invite an independent trainer to give courses to your staff. Courses can be tailored to your requirements.

From time to time Executive Overviews can be arranged as brief introductions to Edward de Bono's programmes. They usually last 2-4 hours and are often free of charge. These overviews give you an opportunity to gain an understanding of Edward de Bono's concepts and techniques. After attending, you will know:

	if you have an interest in attending a public seminar.
	if you want to commission a certified trainer to come into your organisation to train your staff
	if you want to have some of your staff certified to train your own staff

References from numerous organisations can be supplied - a partial list is given below.

Some of the advantages of in-house courses are:

	Complete confidentiality
	Economy on individual tuition, travel and expenses
	Programmes can be customised to meet your unique requirements
	Programmes can be scheduled at your convenience
	Everyone will use consistent methods and 'speak the same language'
	Your entire group will be immediately productive
	Tackle real and pertinent problems during the training programme
	Those who are unable to attend an in-house programme can be trained at a public session at a later date
	The new thinking skills and techniques will be practiced during the programme
	The programmes are interactive and participative
	Your staff will not be away from their place of work and can keep on top of their functions
	The programmes have proved themselves to be of considerable financial importance to organisations such as yours
