Get 'er Done, Have Some Fun and Save Money!

Businesses, schools, and other organizations often find themselves in the position of having large numbers of people to train, but in order to do so they must coordinate multiples dates, instructors, classroom space and the participants themselves, causing disruption to business or classes over and over and over.  Open Door Development can help you solve this problem with our large group training options!

We are a Red Cross Training Partner!

Very few of our courses have maximum numbers of participants, meaning we can train large portions, if not all of your participants at the same time.  You simply need to provide us with the appropriate space and we will provide the appropriate trainers and resources.  Where a maximum limit exists, for example with first aid training, it simply means there is an established policy regarding the instructor to participant ratio and we will provide the correct number of instructors to meet that requirement for larger groups.  For example, if you have 18 or fewer individuals who need to be certified we will provide one professional instructor.  If you have 80 individuals to certify we will provide 5 professional instructors and create a learning experience that gives everyone direct interaction and feedback from the trainers.

Reduces sick days and increases productivity!

Whether you have a gym, auditorium, theater, or multiple smaller classroom spaces to work with we can create a training strategy that meets your needs and provide a high quality experience for all participants.

Whether welcoming new students or new employees this is a great way to build connections between new additions and established veterans and build a strong team foundation.  As part of a one-day program, Open Door Development can use a morning session to train your chosen leaders in how to run team building activities and empower them to run the afternoon program themselves.  Open Door Development's professional facilitators provide all the equipment and step back in to a supportive role as your leaders take the spotlight with the participants.  All activities are age-appropriate, can be tailored to meet physical or learning needs, and are structured with physical and emotional safety as top priorities.  Whether indoors or outdoors we create a package of activities that are appropriate for your space. 

Great for helping feeder school students prepare for the transition to high school in the fall (high school student leaders will earn an "Introduction to Facilitation" certificate to put on their resumes), or for helping companies to welcome new employees!  To learn more please contact our office by email or by calling (613) 464-1980 today!
