Onsite Training

At Thomas A. Little Consulting, we understand that many quality improvement projects need to
be done yesterday. Your team of engineers needs immediate, quality training, yet it may not be
practical to send a sizable group off-site for a seminar. We have the solution. You provide the
location and we provide customized on-site training complete with an expert instructor and our
comprehensive course material. As needed we can also provide laptop computers and state of
the art software to provide instant hands-on laboratory based training. We have experience
providing training solutions all over the globe.

Public Training

We also offer a variety of public courses. You can assess them through the web site. These
courses are ideal when you have a limited number of employees who need a class and the
expense does not warrant scheduling a class on-site.

Xerox Document Management

Don't have the time or the capability to duplicate the course material for the training class?
No problem. For a small fee we can take care of all the duplication and binding and send them
anywhere in the world they are needed.

Train the Trainer
In many cases, companies wish to develop internal expertise to deliver a quality curriculum to their
employees. To assist our clients with this mission, Thomas A. Little Consulting offers Train the
Trainer workshops for any class that we offer.

The Train the Trainer workshops are designed to increase the effectiveness of new trainers by
teaching the participants how to effectively transfer expertise to others. Also, these tailored
programs will provide participants with a solid and thorough understanding of the course material.

Each participant is actively involved in the learning process ensuring that the skills that they develop
can be put to use right away. During the workshop each participant will be given the opportunity to
ask questions, practice, perform, and apply skills. In addition, each trainer is provided immediate
feedback from their peers and the instructor

 
Training Needs Assessment

Not quite sure what courses your company needs? Well, as experts in analyzing performance issues,
let us conduct a training needs assessment to help you clearly define the specific quality engineering
training courses needed. We can perform a needs assessment focused on identifying the specific
employee skills that are needed to meet current company issues.

A thorough on-site assessment of company specific issues, current employee skills, future demands,
and process quality issues will pinpoint specific areas for focus. Based on our findings, a training
need assessment summary will be generated identifying exactly what training courses are required
to meet current and future company goals and initiatives.
