Project Management for Results

        In-House Training
       One of the more popular vehicles for accessing the Institute’s educational offerings is the delivery
       of on-site trainings and management facilitations. Bringing a training or facilitation in-house gives
       you the opportunity to customize a program that addresses your exact challenges and provides a
       more personal learning experience, while virtually eliminating travel expenses. Whether you require
       training for your department of for an organization-wide initiative, the advanced learning methods
       employed by The Performance Institute (PI) will create an intimate training atmosphere that maximizes
       knowledge transfer to enhance the talent within your organization.

       customization
       We realize that not all obstacles can be overcome by applying an “off-the-shelf solution”. While
       many training providers will offer you some variation of their standard training, PI’s subject matter
       experts will work with you and your team to examine your programs and determine your exact
       areas of need. The identification of real life examples will create a learning atmosphere that
       resonates with participants and provides immediate return on your training investment. Using
       interactive exercises that employ actual projects or scenarios from your organization, instructors can
       address specific challenges and align the curriculum of each session to your objectives. While the
       majority of on-site trainings are focused on smaller groups, PI also has the ability to accommodate
       organizational-wide training initiatives. Utilizing multiple instructors, PI has the capacity to deliver
       courses to groups of up to 300 participants per day
