The training curriculum that we have adopted from The Persimmon Group has been quite valuable for our Program Management Practice. It combines a very effective blend of industry standards, practical real world experience, and tailoring to meet our specific business needs.
The NORDAM Group
The Persimmon Group took the time to learn my business and understand my expectations. Furthermore, they are committed to creating a learning organization with continuous application to the workplace versus simply delivering a class. In addition to having effectively designed training curriculum, they took special effort to weave terminology and ideas from my company culture. I recommend The Persimmon Group with 100% confidence because of the way they do business.
