Contract Training
Many of these training programs can be tailored to suit the unique needs of an individual company, professional office, government agency, or community group and can be delivered exclusively for that client on a contractual basis.
Training sessions can be conducted at the client's work site, if preferred, in Bloomsburg University's executive training facilities, or at any other location designated by the client. Instruction can be scheduled during daytime hours, weekday evenings, weekends, or any combination of days and times. Instructors are carefully screened on the merits of their technical competence, interactive teaching techniques, and ability to relate to adult learners in a relaxed, non-threatening environment.
