Effective Training Designed for Your Needs
Do need training designed specifically to meet your organizational needs?
The Bottom Line? You have information and expertise you need shared across your organization, but don’t have instructional design expertise – or your designers are already over committed. The Kevin Eikenberry Group will help you design interactive, fun, pertinent, relevant, and highly effective training on time and on budget.
What You Can Expect
You can expect a partner working with you who is focused on delivering on business results with training as a tool, rather than a complete focus on training as the only answer. We also relish the opportunity to not only deliver a design to you, but help your team learn how we did it – so the next time you may be able to design it yourself.
“Kevin offers a constant resource and business partner for your company and employees down the road, also. He offers to help current and former clients whenever the need is there. The range of areas Kevin can offer are limited only by your imagination. You will be extremely happy with the results of any project you do with Kevin and you will count your blessings for quite some time. You will not regret hiring Kevin in any area.”
- Dave Shinkle, Training Manager, Argosy Casinos

Here are the elements that will be included in any training development project we are involved in:
-
Adult-based - since your people are adults, the training takes into account the unique needs of adult learners.
- Performance-focused - learners gain specific new skills and knowledge they can apply in their professional and personal lives.
- Lasting - the learning is best judged by the lasting skills, knowledge and attitude impact on the participant's and their organizations.
- Customized - sessions are always designed with the unique needs of the organization in mind. That way learners don't scratch their heads and spend half of their time determining how to apply what is being taught.
- Experiential - learners will learn the skills and knowledge by doing, not just passively listening.
- Grounded - all learning is grounded in real life - enough theory for it to make sense, but with a focus on application.
- Holistic - learners understand that how what they've learned fits into the bigger organizational picture.
- Fun - learners leave the sessions having enjoyed the session, as well as learned valuable skills.
How We Operate
We start by understanding the needs of your business – so that training is not only well targeted, but realistic and connected to the overall business objectives. With this background, we use your subject matter expertise and bring our own rapid instructional design approaches to create great learning experiences.
Beyond our instructional design experience we bring a belief in learning as an active process. Training we design will be engaging and full of practice and exercises meant to make the skills and knowledge real in your workplace.
Our Chief Potential Officer, Kevin Eikenberry has served as President, Chairman and two term board member of the North American Simulation and Gaming Association (NASAGA), the premier professional organization for those interested in making learning more experiential and engaging.
What We Believe
Beyond the key elements listed above, it is important to understand the underlying beliefs of your instructional designers to make sure that the approaches and values of the training matches your organizational culture. For that reason, here is a part of our philosophy:
- We believe that learning is a process not an event. One training class doesn’t solve the problem. One book won’t change everything. We strive to help you build processes that will support the learning beyond events and help make them relevant and valuable in the real world.
- We believe that learning is an active process, not a passive one-way lecture. We didn’t learn to ride a bike until we sat in the seat. For that very reason, we can’t expect people to learn new skills in a passive lecture. People need a chance to try and practice. We design our services to make this happen.
- We believe that learning can and should be fun (or we aren’t doing it right). Human beings are learning beings! When we make learning fun, exciting and interactive, we learn more, learn faster and remember longer.
