Klassikaal
Bij de klassikale lesvorm voor trainingen staat een ervaren docent voor de klas. De gecertificeerde, praktijkgerichte trainer begeleidt je door de lesstof, geeft uitleg, laat voorbeelden zien, geeft hands-on opdrachten en behandelt vragen. Alle cursisten leren in hetzelfde tempo en krijgen dezelfde lesstof. De docent bepaalt het tempo afhankelijk van de behoefte van de groep.
Incompany
Wist jij dat alle IT trainingen die we aanbieden op de website ook bij jouw bedrijf uitgevoerd kunnen worden? Zo volg je een maatwerk IT training (Incompany training) met al je collega’s. Jij kunt de training nog specifieker voor jouw bedrijf laten inrichten en het is zelfs mogelijk om een geheel maatwerk traject door ons te laten ontwerpen.
Je bespaart reiskosten en reistijd voor de deelnemers, doordat onze trainer bij jou op locatie komt. Op deze manier kun je meerdere deelnemers van jouw organisatie dezelfde training laten volgen. Dat is efficiënt en effectief! Samen heb je een gemeenschappelijke opleidingsbehoefte en daar gaan we je bij helpen.
We hebben jarenlang ervaring in het geven van maatwerk it trainingen. We kijken zorgvuldig naar de opleidingsbehoefte om volledig aan te sluiten bij je wensen. Zo formuleren we haalbare en concrete doelstellingen en deelnemers kunnen het geleerde in de praktijk toepassen. Op deze manier groeien deelnemers persoonlijk en professioneel op meerdere niveaus.
