Training and development is a major part of the Visology offering. These pages contain information on the approach the company adopts when providing clients with training and development services. Visology sets out to deliver focused training that is tailored to the needs of the client organisation. Early on in the consultation process, Visology’s trainers will establish the existing levels of knowledge, skills and attitudes of the target audience and the desired state the sponsors want to achieve.

Visology’s training is split into four sections representing:

• Business skills
  
• Management skills
  
• Personal skills
  
• Specialist skills

All the training that Visology offers is divided into a series of workshops covering a variety of subject areas. Each workshop is modularised, enabling clients to pick and choose development activities that suit their company’s needs, budgets and priorities. This modular approach enables Visology to develop discreet one-off workshops or complete development programmes for its clients. It also enables training to be delivered in a progressive way, taking delegates to increasing levels of knowledge and skills.

For clients requiring a holistic approach to training, Visology is able to offer a comprehensive development package that could include:

Initial consultation and specification of development needs

• Training Needs Analysis
  
• Production of a Personal Development Plan
• Delegate selection and preparation
  
• Training Course Design
  
• Pre-course preparation using distance learning in whatever format the client desires including paper, Interactive CD, Intranet, Internet etc.
  
• Programme delivery
  
• Identification of delegates requiring additional support
  
• Feedback and evaluation
  
• On-job coaching and counselling
  

This holistic approach would be particularly helpful to any organisation instigating major change within their business processes or culture. Training could be designed to underpin the change and to compliment developments as change takes place.
