Training needs study
We study your trainees, their current skills and the work they are training for, and agree the skill gaps the programme must close.

Questions organisations ask
What does an educational consultant do for a training organisation?
An educational consultant helps you decide what to teach and how. We study your trainees and the jobs they train for, map an industry-aligned curriculum, deliver or support the training, develop your trainers, and agree how learning is assessed and certified.
Which countries do you work in?
Our consultancy services are available in the GCC (the United Arab Emirates, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait), in Sudan, Nigeria and South Africa, and in Norway.
Can the training happen at our site?
Yes. Training can be delivered at your site, as live online classes, as a mix of both, or at our centres in India. The mode is agreed in the proposal.
Which subjects can you help with?
Engineering and automation (including PLC, instrumentation, embedded systems, MEP, civil QA/QC, NDT, oil and gas, and fire and safety), IT and emerging technology (data science, AI, cloud, networking, cyber security and software development), and business and management (accounting, SAP, logistics, HR and digital marketing).
Do you train trainers and faculty?
Yes. Faculty and trainer development programmes cover Industry 4.0, automation, AI and modern teaching practice, so your own team can carry the training forward.
How are trainees assessed and certified?
Assessments and certificates are part of each programme. Which certificates apply, and how they are recognised, is set out in the proposal before training begins.
Is this service for individual students?
No, it is for organisations. Students looking for a course can browse our courses or talk to a counsellor.
