LONDON-BASED training firm, London Corporate Training (LCT), has rolled out series of training programmes for the year 2010 while offering two promotions in its bid to encourage Nigerian managers to enrol.
At the introduction of the programmes to Nigerian managers in Abuja recently, Managing Director of LCT, Mr. Ian Mann, said that the coming year will offer robust general and customised programmes for the benefit of participants.
Mann, who said that his firm had trained managers from Nigerian organisations such as the Central Bank, the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), NNPC, oil companies and the banks, in the past, added that for the coming year, programmes have been designed in a flexible manner so as to accommodate the specific needs of participants.
Among the programmes to be taught in 2010 are: Streamlined credit control and debt management, economic crime and fraud prevention, corporate financial planning, strategic human resources and organisational development, internal auditing- procedures and control, performance management- motivation and development, and strategic public relations management.
Others are in the areas of Islamic banking, courses for secretaries and personal assistants. "We run 40 regular courses covering different aspects of management such as Leadership, Time Management, Team Building and Public Relations", Mann said.
Commenting on the training on Islamic banking, he said, "this is a new development, it works on a different principle from the western banking system. This course will address how the Islamic banking system works".
Sales Development Manager, Mr. Rohit Chandiramani, at the event, said that the courses for 2010 would be held in London as well as in other countries such as Dubai, Morocco and Egypt. According to him, there will also be one-day training programmes.
"We will build custom-made courses based on your needs and requirements", he said. He added that there would be a welcome back promotion of £100 for each participant that had attended a course with the firm in the past as well as a 25 per cent rebate for group participants.
The two promotions are tagged the welcome back promotion and the group discount scheme. Under the latter, booking for three participants for the same course will earn the organisation one additional free booking for a fourth participant. For six bookings, there are two extra free slots while bookings for nine participants on the same course will give their organisation an opportunity to register three additional participants free of charge.
In a press release made available to The Guardian, Mann was quoted to have said that the organisation, which has been in business for 15 years, has continued to train Nigerians because it has established close working relationship with prestigious Nigerian firms.
"The reason for our continued and growing success in Nigeria is not just that we have a splendid team of experienced, highly qualified and expert trainers. It is because we know that each individual who comes to us for training is an important person and we treat them as such", he said.
At the occasion, a raffle draw was held with the assistance of Mr. Peter West, the deputy British High Commissioner in Nigeria. Three prices were given away. The first prize was a laptop.
