Rhema Group begin supplying Fort Hill Company products

Rhema Group is proud to announce that it has been approved to begin supplying Fort Hill Company products in the U.K.

USA based Fort Hill Company (www.forthillcompany.com) offers a comprehensive suite of products and services that ensure that an organisation’s training and development programs generate meaningful and measurable results.

At the core of their approach is the Six Disciplines™ Methodology, the first truly comprehensive approach to the design, delivery and measurement of corporate learning programs.  The Six Disciplines complement and extend traditional instructional design models by including the temporal and environmental factors that can truly make or break the impact of any training program.

The research behind the Six Disciplines revealed that the seeds of training success or failure are planted before the training itself begins,  so Fort Hill produced Getting Your Money’s Worth from Training and Development—a practical guide for managers and participants on how to prepare and to get the most from training.

At the request of their clients, they have created an interactive online version called How to Get Your Money’s Worth from Training and Development.  This two-part, LMS-compatible course facilitates the learner-manager dialogue pre- and post-program that research has shown is critical for learning transfer.  A companion program—Learning as Competitive Edge—makes the case for the strategic value of learning and helps create a more favourable transfer climate.

Because great learning leads to great results only when it is transferred and applied to the work of the organization, Fort Hill developed the first, practical, wide-scale Follow-Through Management® system, Results Engine®.    This solves the learning transfer problem, the weakest link in training and development.

Kathy Granger, Executive Vice President of Fort Hill Company, commented on their new relationship with Rhema Group – “We are delighted to collaborate with Rhema and its clients on improving and proving the business impact of learning from Rhema’s suite of training and development programs. 

Jeremy Francis, CEO of Rhema Group commented- “In our view Fort Hill’s products are quite simply the best in the world at ensuring the learning gained on training programs is transferred into the workplace with measurable business results. We see their suite of products as being an essential add-on to the products and services we supply. In future we can really help keep our clients calculate measureable business results in the area of training – a really important value added offering.”

Cambridge University Press

Cambridge University Press addresses global training challenge using Rhema Group's Training Webinars

Cambridge University Press, leaders in the provision of English Language Tuition products throughout the world were looking for a way to equip their Managers around the world with the necessary leadership and management skills to build high performing teams across their different locations.

Having seen Rhema Group's training webinar demonstration on Coaching and Mentoring skills it has decided to embark on the roll out of a full suite of soft skills training using Rhema Group’s training webinars.

Barbara Charlton, Cambridge University Press Sales Director, commented – "Having seen the power of Rhema's training webinars it seemed a natural next step to employ these more fully in the roll out of our training and development plans. Feedback from participants has been excellent and it suits them to undertake these bite size sessions from their own locations but still be able to interact with their counterparts from around the world. As a global operation this approach meets our needs perfectly."

Jeremy Francis, CEO of Rhema Group, commented – "The use of webinars for training is growing all the time, particularly within global organisations. Using this technology we are able to create lively, interactive and highly practical training sessions delivered to delegates anywhere in the world at the same time. This encourages people to form learning communities and share their experiences, a very important element in growing a learning organisation which Cambridge University Press most certainly is".

Macmillan

International Publishing Group Macmillan now use an extensive range of our Bite Size Training Sessions which are being extremely well received.  Sharon Jervis, Head of Publishing  for Macmillan commented:“Rhema’s wide range of 2 hour Bite Size Training Sessions ideally suit our staff who increasingly find it difficult to be away from their work for too long.  These highly practical sessions have proved a very cost effective way of training large numbers of our staff.”

Birmingham Royal Ballet

“Birmingham Royal Ballet wanted to develop the skills of a wide variety of their staff in the areas of Face to Face Communication Skills, Handling Difficult Conversations and Stress Management.  We put together a powerful one day course covering all three areas and those attending found the day thoroughly worthwhile",  Jeremy Francis CEO Rhema Group commented.

“This was the first time we used Rhema and I have to say we were extremely pleased with the quality of the training and the reactions of the course attendees.  They met our needs fully", Sam Howe HR Administrator commented.
