Furthermore learners will use examples from their own environments, thus ensuring that the learning is anchored at their workplace. Most of the interactive learning will take the form of case studies where the learner will do practical application of the theory taught.
As with all DCT training programmes, we strive to effect actual change back at the workplace through effective and practical outcomes based training.
