In-House Training & Customization
One of the more popular vehicles for accessing the Institute’s educational offerings is the delivery of on-site trainings and
management facilitations. Bringing a training or facilitation in-house gives you the opportunity to customize a program
that addresses your exact challenges and provides a more personal learning experience, while virtually eliminating travel
expenses. Whether you require training for your department or for an organization-wide initiative, the advanced learning
methods employed by The American Strategic Management Institute (ASMI) will create an intimate training atmosphere
that maximizes knowledge transfer to enhance the talent within your organization.
Customization:
We realize that not all obstacles can be overcome by applying an “off-the-shelf” solution. While many training
providers will offer you some variation of their standard training, The Institute’s subject matter experts will work with
you and your team to examine your programs and determine your exact areas of need. The identification of real
life examples will create a learning atmosphere that resonates with participants while at the same time providing
immediate return on your training investment. Using interactive exercises that employ actual projects or scenarios
from your organization, instructors can address specific challenges and align the curriculum of each session to your
objectives. While the majority of on-site trainings are focused on smaller groups, The Institute also has the ability to
accommodate organization-wide training initiatives. Utilizing multiple instructors, the Institute has the capacity to
deliver courses to groups of up to 300 participants per day.
Areas of Expertise:
On-site delivery of single courses, certification programs and entire packages of specialized courses are available in the
following areas:
