World-Class Asset Management does not happen overnight, nor does it happen on its own. It is a gradual step-by-step process where success can only be achieved by the correct completion of each of the individual steps. Each of these steps represents a change from the old to the new where everyone involved must let go of the wrong way of doing things to embrace the tried-and-tested new practices.
A key factor for success in any World-Class Organization is thus that its personnel are knowledgeable, skilled, competent, and experienced. Skilled staff is becoming scarcer and that causes service delivery to deteriorate.
Our team of professionals oversee the customer orientated training courses to replenish the skills shortages. A comprehensive list of quality short course training programs are available to our clients.

Our seminars are interactive in nature, where we also encourage the two-way flow of information, ideas and experiences between the presenter and delegates (attendees). Consequently, the recommended maximum number of delegates for a session is 20, although additional trainers can be provided on request for larger groups. All we ask is that you prepare a room big enough to accommodate everyone who is attending.
In-school training are usually full day (approximately 5 hours) sessions. These are charged on a sliding scale dependent upon the number of delegates present.
Timings are flexible to suit the needs of your delegates. The start and finish times and the time and durations of the refreshment breaks are usually agreed between the presenter and the delegates to fit around the teaching commitments.
