What makes for outstanding live training? This question is what keeps Pillars instructors up at night. What we did yesterday, however successful, is never good enough. Here is what we have learned:
1. Students learn best when they participate
-
- Each and every student is encouraged to participate in our classes. Our goal is 100% engagement in 100% of our classes.
2. People learn in different ways
-
- Scientific research tells us that people generally learn in 3 different ways:
- Reading
- Listening
- Doing
- Our instructors use each of these three methods in every class. In addition, we provide practice problems and Excel models for homework to cement the learning after class.

3. Our best teachers are our students
-
- If you listen, people will tell you what they need. Our courses have been designed in consultation with our clients for years. After each and every course we solicit feedback to complete the loop.
Over the years, we have taught at all types of schools, firms, and offices to class sizes of one to over one hundred. We excel at both in-person and webinar-based live instruction. From new hire training to continuing education, our extensive course offerings are used by some of the leading firms around the world. Also, we are happy to put you in direct contact with our clients to discuss their positive training experience with Pillars.
