I was really impressed with the material and content of the class. I learned a great deal and am working on applying that knowledge.
- The course involves 4 interactive live online sessions over 4 weeks.
- Each week there is a 90-minute, live on-line session with the course facilitator, Phillip Slater.
- Each weekly module consists of reading, videos, and exercises. The participants review this content before each weekly online session.
- The online session then acts as a tutorial to clarify understanding and answer questions.
- There is a 26 page workbook to guide students through the course that includes all the exercises. Expected âhomeworkâ time averages at approximately 60-90 minutes per week.
- By adopting an interactive process, the boot camp also aims to help participants develop a personal action plan for execution in their businesses.
This course is delivered via the Spare Parts Training Academy.
