Corp Training
LiveTrain for Corporate Training
LiveTrain is Today’s Leading Solution for Corporate IT Training needs.
Over the past decade, the use of online training by corporations has exploded. Unfortunately, as many Training Managers are aware, the results have been somewhat mixed. Corporations have spent millions on online training solutions for their employees, only to find that usage, and return on investment was minimal.
The reasons for the lack of ROI and usage are myriad. Most online training is delivered through text and graphics, which, quite frankly, are not engaging. In addition, employees are left to practice what they read in simple lab simulations, with limited options, and absolutely no help. Lack of help or guidance during training is the number one reason students do not complete their training.
Studies have shown that when a student, of any subject, runs into something they don’t understand, and continues to study without clearing up their misunderstanding, they get confused, then bored, and then stop studying completely. If you’ve ever wondered why you have not gotten a return on your investment in corporate training, this will make 100% sense to you.
The LiveTrain Solution
LiveTrain is the first training provider that combines the convenience of online training, with all the advantages of Live classroom training. Our training is specifically designed for corporations who want the convenience, and affordability, of online training; while at the same time giving their employees the actual skills and knowledge that were previously available only with live classroom training. Our training was developed to give corporate employees the actual skills they need to perform the job, not just pass a test.
Our training consists of 5 Proven Elements which, when used in conjunction, will ensure that your employees will:
a) Complete the training assigned to them.
b) Learn and perfect the skills necessary to do their job.
c) Pass their certification exam if required.
The 5 Proven Elements of Successful Corporate Training:
1) Instructor Led Training
We begin our training by first selecting world class instructors for Microsoft, Cisco and CompTIA courses. Each instructor is chosen not just for their credentials, which are exemplary, but also for the extensive experience they have doing the job that they’ll actually be training the employee to do. Each instructor teaches a live class in his/her areas of expertise, which is then recorded for ease of continual playback at a click of a mouse.
2) Real Live Labs for Building Real Skills
Our Microsoft and Cisco Training includes unlimited use of our Live Labs.
Microsoft Labs
These enable your employees to gain real skills and experience through live, unlimited training, on real servers and workstations running genuine Microsoft applications. Unlike other online training providers, who only supply lab simulations with limited options, LiveTrain gives your employees hands on training, with unlimited remote access to actual live labs, which will enable them to perfect their skills in genuine Microsoft environments. The live labs allow your employees to perfect their skills, while they make their mistakes on our equipment, not yours.
Cisco Labs
These enable your employees to get real skills and experience through live, unlimited training, on real Cisco routers and switches. With our Cisco training, your employees will be provided with access to a full rack of genuine Cisco routers and switches. Unlike other online training providers, who only provide demos, or lab simulations with limited options, LiveTrain gives your employees unlimited remote access to an entire rack of Cisco routers and switches, enabling them to perfect their skills on genuine Cisco equipment. The live labs allow your employees to perfect their skills while they make their mistakes on our equipment, not yours.
3). LiveTutors for Round the Clock Individualised Support
The biggest concern for any Training Manager is “will my employees actually do the training?”. As we mentioned above, the number one reason for students not completing a course of study, is that they misunderstand something, get confused, then bored, and then stop studying completely. With LiveTrain’s 24/7 live, individualised tutoring, this can never happen. Anytime the student has a problem or misunderstanding, help is available instantly. If the student is stuck on a problem and needs instant help, the tutor is there instantly with immediate help and guidance. In the event your employee is unsure of what do next on a live lab, the tutor is there instantly to walk him/her through the problem. 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, 365 days a year, the live tutors are there to guide your employees through every aspect of their training and skill building.
4). Real Exam Simulations
LiveTrain is committed to your employees not only having the skills and knowledge to do the job, but, where appropriate, also guarantees that your employee will pass his/her certification exam*. Even the most skilled professional can sometimes get exam anxiety. At LiveTrain we are committed to making sure that your employees are fully prepared to pass their exam, free of any anxiety. Our test engines are designed to simulate the real certification exams, and to make sure your employees are fully familiar with the way the questions are actually phrased on the certification exam, the kind of answers they are looking for, and the timed format of the exam as well. The test simulations allow your employees to test themselves many times over (there is never an identical test), and ensure that when they walk into the testing centre, they go in with the absolute knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to pass the certification exam.
5). Learning Management System
The most successful tool a Training Manager can possess to assure a return on investment, and full usage of the training, is the ability to assign specific courses and monitor the progress of each employee’s training. Included with our Corporate Training packages is a Learning Management System, which will allow you to assign individual courses to each employee, and individually monitor their progress. This will enable the Training Manager to quickly and easily identify any issue regarding an employee's training, and rectify it immediately. Employees who know their training progress is being monitored, study more diligently, and attain more successful results, than those who are not monitored.

“The quality of the training materials is very impressive and they provide a lot more than just the paper based courseware you would normally get for spending twice as much with other companies. I find the video lectures and demonstrations very informative. Most of all I like the fact that I get lots of hands on practice!”
Irene Vincent, Worthing, Sussex

“We used to send our staff away to learn Microsoft Office at £400 per day; we can now provide each staff member with the same instructor-led style training on site for a fraction of that price”
Sue Herbert, Personnel Manager, Datalink

“This course is very well presented. The instructor is clear and concise, provides a wealth of knowledge and explains the real world applications. The CEH course is definitely for anyone who is serious about Computer Security. I would recommend this course to anyone presently doing programming who wishes to get a better understanding of the different classes of a hacker and the procedures in which a "cracker" (Black Hat Hacker) goes through to gain access into any system. I am enjoying going through this course-- and I am going to complete it ahead of time!”
Paul Turnbull, Manchester
