Our discussion model aims to minimize PowerPoint and lecture oriented delivery to maximize training and learning outcomes. Our hope is to encourage inquiry, critical thinking, and skill development, while having some fun. Training is suited to accommodate a wide range of learning styles, audiences, and/or program objectives. Further accommodations can be made where necessary.
