Extra information due to Covid-19

As lockdowns around the world are being lifted, we are very happy to go back to in-person training. We are working on safety measures to ensure that the training stays dynamic while also being safe. At the same time, we understand the situation regarding Covid-19 is fluid and can change. We are therefore also ready to run this training in a live-online format if the circumstances demand it.

After you register, you will be informed on possible changes in the training format. You will have the opportunity to cancel or postpone your participation at no cost, in case of switching to the online training format.

Hoe pakken jullie deze opleiding aan? Wat mag ik verwachten?

Goeie vraag! Voor ons is jouw maximale leerrendement het doel. Daarom combineren we een individuele voorbereiding (op je eigen tempo en maat) met het klassikaal werken. In dat 2-daagse klassikale stuk verdiepen de theoretische basis die je in de voorbereiding opdeed, en vertalen we die naar de praktijk. We combineren oefeningen in kleinere groepen (met real-life cases) met reflectie en brokjes aanvullende theorie. We gebruiken voor in-person trainings geen powerpoint, maar veel interactie en gesprek, ondersteund door sprekende (op maat gemaakte) visuals die ook later als documentatie dienen. Onze trainers zijn ook allemaal ervaren S3-coaches die met hun voeten in de aarde staan bij onze klanten en hun inzichten en ervaringen graag delen.

Kan ik de ‘KMO portefeuille’ gebruiken voor deze training?

Ja, dat kan. Als u de ‘KMO-portefeuille’ wilt gebruiken, kunt u dat tijdens uw inschrijving aangeven.
Wij zullen u daarna verdere instructies bezorgen.
De factuur zal opgestuurd worden door onze collega Kristine van Learnia, een zusterbedrijf van iLean dat instaat voor de KMO-portefeuille.
Van uw kant is het belangrijk dat u deze opleiding ook registreert op het platform van de ‘KMO-portefeuille’ en u kan daarvoor het volgende nummer gebruiken: DV.O211905

Wat als deze opleiding te duur voor me is?
