At SLCLG, we tailor our consulting and training services to ensure your organization's leadership, staff, members, and/or apprentices receive a substantive education and develop the practical skills necessary to reach your organization's goals.
What we strive to provide is a personalized training service to help your organization respond to and prevent workplace issues. Our proactive approach starts by observing and assessing your specific training requirements. Our instruction and curriculum expert then designs a training program to best suit those needs. The key to our success? Our course developer, a tenured labor lawyer with 15 years of local experience, is also our firm’s lead trainer. Our facilitators know the course materials inside and out and once it’s deployed in the classroom, they’re the ones who can then directly modify it in response to your feedback.
Our facilitators are skilled at working with a range of adult learning styles and they have experience facilitating large group workshops, as well as individualized one-on-one training sessions. Their ability to facilitate and engage the class, whether in person or via webinar, leads to poignant and informative participation. SLCLG’s workshops and training modules are educational and incorporate a wide variety of exercises that reinforce key concepts with engaging and interactive discussions designed to meet each of our client’s individualized objectives.
SLCLG wants to help you address the past, improve the present, and plan for the future.
We spend up to four hours at your place of business to identify challenges, meet and interview staff, survey employees, and discuss your labor organization’s training needs.
Our goal is to understand your strategic objectives, assess your HR challenges, identify skill and knowledge gaps, and determine what might be hindering your organization’s success. From there, we collaborate with you to design a training program that best suits your labor organization’s needs.
From harassment prevention to leave management, the broad spectrum of workplace law requires all employers and training agents to conduct periodic training to maintain a legally compliant and productive workplace or learning environment.
Our firm has developed a wide array of hands-on workshops and training modules that can be seamlessly integrated into any training program. Each workshop and module is presented on-site by one of our knowledgeable facilitators in a manner that best suits your organization’s needs and time constraints.
When developing training specific to your organizational needs, we use an approach that respects the availability and learning styles of your team. This allows them to select activities and modules that suit their preferences while still receiving the content they need. Our training sessions are engaging and interactive, with experienced facilitators supporting your team to not only learn new information but also apply it to generate new insights and possibilities. This can include, but is not limited to:
