Why use practical learning designs to transform client-facing training?
Marketing and sales agencies are tasked with driving business growth and development for clients. What we have seen over the years is that although agency solutions are usually great, the implementation phase done through training is where profit margin and goodwill with the client can come into jeopardy.
This happens when training ‘doesn’t quite land’ and the client seeks further training, a heavier hand in implementation or a review of ‘how things should be done’. This is quite a common issue, not surprisingly because agencies are not experts in learning design or learning application design.
How to design training to improve client satisfaction and protect profit margin?
Practical Training Transfer learning principles are based on methodologies that are rooted in sound scientific theories. Those theories are balanced with our experience of successfully delivering commercial vendor projects that lead to immediate impact in the workflow.

PTT evaluation approach that complement marketing and sales solutions
At PTT we evaluate training results using The Success Case Method developed by Professor Robert Brinkerhoff. We leverage marketing survey and interview methods to answers the question: ‘Who has been successful applying the training we designed and why?’. The approach and the answers you get from the success case method is highly popular with clients, managers, and company leaders:

- Simple – the process is easy to implement and uses real business language instead of abstract learning ideas
- Actionable – it looks at what can be achieved and why those achievements matter
- Persuasive – it demonstrates the value of designing for workplace application
PTT can partner with you to create Success Case Method style evaluations that prove to your clients the value of accelerated learning design principles and throws weight behind your solutions.
