2. Does it take ten weeks to get certified?

We train them each week until they pass certain criteria and sound professional with our trainers. Once they reach their course criteria we record the session (of them using the material) and send it to you. If they sound good to you, they are certified. If not we continue.

3. How many session are allowed a week?

Your people can train up to three times a week at forty-eight hour intervals. We encourage them to train at least twice a week but they will be rquired to train at least once.

4. How often do you call my people to get a session done and how long does a session last?

We will call a minimum of once a week. Our trainers may call a single person up to three times if they're are having a hard time getting a hold of a participant. A session can  last anywhere between 10 to 30 minutes. It really depends how long we can get them to stay on the phone. We alsways try for the maximum time.

 

5. Does a participant have the same trainer for each session?

We try and assign a specific trainer to each participant through certification.
If your personnel call the training center and their specific trainer is unavailable we will put them with another trainer just for that session.
