“We work closely with your company to customize content and format programs to target different levels of employees. If your organization has a unique set of issues, it may be difficult to find open enrollment courses that allow your executives and managers to apply new knowledge directly to the work of your business. Our approach to action learning can provide powerful and engaging experience for your division or entire workforce. Programs that can help you discover better ways of meeting key business objectives and prepare your executives with the knowledge and skills needed to meet those objectives may be what you need to succeed.”
School Uniqueness
- Business school is named after famed Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton
- Offers Existing Workforce Training Program:
Certain Arkansas-based businesses may be eligible for tax credits or reimbursements towards customized training through the Existing Workforce Training Program (EWTP). The EWTP provides financial assistance to Arkansas’s businesses and eligible consortia of businesses for upgrading the skills of the existing workforce. Skills upgrade training is instruction conducted in a classroom environment at a work site, an educational institution or a neutral location, that provides an existing, full-time employee with the new skills necessary to enhance productivity, improve performance and/or retain employment.
