Continuing Professional Development

A fixed-price continuing professional development program designed to improve your organization's effectiveness and capability.

This program is delivered monthly "live" from Randall Craig's virtual studio.  Beyond the presentation, Q & A, and interaction, templates and tools are provided to improve the ability to translate the concepts into action.

There are 61 different - and up-to-date - topics that we currently offer, in four areas: Leadership, Strategy, Marketing, and Business Development.  Browse through the full list.

Key benefits:

  • Professional development for everyone - all at a fixed monthly cost, and in a modern, just-in-time format.  The organization will build a common vocabulary, leading to better decisions and lower risk.
  • Instead of full-day workshops, learning is layered throughout the year... and is more likely to be translated into action.
  • Professional development without the uncertainty of cost overruns, surprise invoices, and logistics headaches.
  • Just-in-time training without taking people off the job for full day (and without travel expenses)

Here's how it works:

1) The initial onboarding involves a meeting where we discuss your organizational goals, and agree on the monthly topics (there are 61 available.)

2) Each month, your organization will send out an invitation email that contains a link to the registration page. The attendee registers to attend, and the system sends them a personalized link, along with a reminder.  (Or if you prefer, we can provide a link that you can embed within a monthly recurring meeting request.)

3) Each week, we will send you a Tipsheet that you can distribute throughout your organization, which explores a topical issue keyed to the monthly professional development. Exploring a related topic will “cue” (and reinforce) the learning from the training itself, without seeming to be repetitive. Each message – which will take less than 5 minutes to read – has a similar format:

  • A challenge, issue, or opportunity that an individual or team may face.
  • An exploration of the topic, with perspective and insights.
  • An “Action Item” that the person can implement immediately.  The idea is to quickly translate the concept into accomplishment, by providing an easy first step.

There are two options:

  • a "shared" option where other organizations will also be attending.
  • a customized-for-you option where only your organization would be attending. Includes detailed reporting.

What this includes:

  • We develop and deliver all content, provide all logistics, registration, reminders, and technology for up to 1000 people. Speak to us if you have more attendees.

  • For a low fixed monthly cost, we provide specific, action-oriented professional development – a tangible benefit to the learner – without the risk of cost overruns or surprise bills.

  • Our platform takes care of the registration automatically, and sends each person a customized link to attend.

  • We provide full registration and attendance reporting. (Customized-for-you option only)
