A.H. Beard

A.H. Beard
"Sally did a great job particularly as she had to contend with a whole group of women (and one man) during the afternoon after a full on meeting during the morning.. She kept us awoke and interested for the whole 3 hours. I will definitely consider PD Training for future sessions."
Amaroo School
"I am definitely 'a raving fan'! From the outset Jessica made us feel welcome & dispelled any barriers that might have surrounded a group of strangers. I felt that Jessica took particular interest in each participants needs & goals of the course & directed the teaching to suit the individual as well as the group. Really got more out of the course than I expected! Would recommend the course to anyone."

"Pam is a fantastic teacher and covered a wide range of information in a very short time, in a clear, structured way. I'm looking forward to putting some of her tips into action."
Wellington Airport
"Great course. Ran out of time for the part that was of most interest to me (tips/skills for actually presenting/speaking). However, I understand that this was due to a late change and we will be getting this component in due course. Really good presenter, looking forward to it."
Wellington Airport
"Great course. The trainer provided lots of opportunities to practice speaking which was greatly appreciated. Also appreciated the feedback given on the day and applied this to my next presentation."
Ammonite Enterprises Ltd
"I thought I was/am a fairly reasonable speaker, given my usual audiences, but I learned a lot from our our speaker: so 'able' to establish a rapport with his audience and comes across as genuine, sincere, experienced and with a good sense of humour; essential in my 'disabled' community and world..."
Tiaho Trust
"The best part of the course was to watch Kim in action and how she cleverly wove the content and examples throughout the day. Parking was a disruptive issue as people had to get up and change parks and I found this interrupted the flow of delivery. Learnt a great deal and enjoyed the day. Thanks for all the effort."
BLENNZ

When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.
We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some can be in the room with others offsite.
Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files), and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of attending a course in a room with other people.
We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.
You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.
A hybrid class is with some people connecting online, and some people physically together in the same room.
We provide the Training Management Centre which is an information hub before, during and after training.

At the completion of training participants are encouraged to create an action plan, and invite an accountability buddy via their Orgmenta App.
In your Training Management Centre you have transparency to the action plans so you can see what people are going to do differently.
Our systems and people make it easy to identify how you’ll be able to measure impacts,
and then report on the success in the weeks or months after training.
It’s surprisingly easy to make it so that your system can automatically be up to date with all the training record details you need.
