Our product and service specialty is in employee development and management training programs, customized virtual career success centers, and corporate as well as individual career coaching services.

Our Virtual Career Success Center emerged as a direct result of focus groups and needs assessments with university and corporate leaders. In short, we recognized an unmet opportunity to create comprehensive career development programs that achieve the following objectives:

1. Meets the #1 requested professional service: Career Management Support.
2. 24X7 password-protected access to our private labeled Virtual Career Success Center from any internet connected computer.
3. User-friendly, self-guided resources including 9 career assessments, resume and cover letter builders, access to proprietary research databases for searching over 4 million companies, 10 million industry contacts, international opportunities and in-depth occupational intelligence.
4. Administrator capabilities to track, monitor, and communicate with users.

Our Professional Development and Training Programs emerged as a result of corporate requests for customized programs resulting from annual employee surveys. Each program includes PowerPoint Presentations, Facilitator Guides and Participant Guides. Train-the-trainer programs are also implemented upon request.
