Lori Harding, GROW Incumbent Worker Training Program Lead - Workforce Development
This is our second season working with Conestoga. It was so incredibly successful in the first year that we were very happy to partner again for our 2021/2022 training season!
The leadership training series offered by Conestoga has been the perfect opportunity for our participants to round out their leadership learning outcomes. It is the ideal blend of subjects and timing to supplement our client’s often difficult schedules and very specific areas of interest. There was so much demand that we had to add a second classes to keep up with interest. Our participants love the practical knowledge with applicable exercises they can bring back to their organizations.
Working with the Conestoga team has been an absolute pleasure. They have been collaborative and nimble in a seamless delivery of the virtual sessions. We look forward to working with them for years to come.
DYNA-MIG
Richard Jeronimus, Tech Services Manager
DYNA-MIG has been working closely with Conestoga to develop a custom 32-hour welding / robotics training course for our robotic technicians. The course began in October 2021 and we have successfully completed three sessions to date.
Working with the college on the development, planning, and delivery of training was a pleasure. The training instructor worked with us one-on-one over a series of web meetings to tailor the content to our business’s needs and was very flexible to our requests. He was very knowledgeable in welding and robotics and was able to provide information and suggestions to help with the development of the course.
As stated above, we have completed three training sessions so far. Each time a session ends, Conestoga is always willing to take feedback as well as make recommendations and changes for future cohorts. The training that we designed has elements of both theory and practical. Our associates have expressed that this training was delivered professionally, and is beneficial to their everyday job.
