Self-Study Guides

 

Designed with individual development in mind, our Self-Study Guides are perfect for employees of small businesses, remote staff, or meeting the specific training needs of a few employees. In true ETL fashion, the opportunity to customize these Self-Study Guides to your organization, culture, environment and needs is available should you require it.  

Need a little extra guidance? While there is a comprehensive "Answers" section contained at the back of each program, Excel Thru Learning is able to engage one-on-one with your employees in telephone or face to face coaching on topics of interest.
