Description:
Join us for a roundtable discussion on different avenues for growing your training business.
Many training businesses begin from the passion of one or two founders who want to solve problems for organizations. By the nature of the beast, if you do your job right, you’ll soon have too many clients to handle on your own. As your client base expands in geography, your permanent staff will stretch thin, too.
So how do you expand from there?
In this roundtable discussion, our panelists from varied training companies will discuss the many ways you can continue to expand your business.
Join us for a free hour of like-minded training and consulting services teams exploring questions such as:
- What are growth options, like train-the-trainer or contract trainers?
- How do you set up a growth plan that is scalable?
- How do you protect your intellectual property while expanding your network?
