These are examples of typical problems in organizations. And, due to lack of critical thinking skills, what many employees do in trying to solve these problems is that they ride on assumptions, biases, or incomplete information and make random changes, and hope the changes work. But most of the time, they don't. So the problems linger, costing the organization.
This course is designed to prevent this.
It will give participants some practical tools and hands-on experience with critical thinking and problem solving.
With critical thinking, the employees (maybe as a team) would pause, figure out the root causes of the problems, make smart decisions, and come up with solutions.
In today's rapidly-evolving business environments, the ability to make smart decisions quickly is one of an organization's greatest assets. But to move fast, employees must first slow down to reason through pressing issues, ask thoughtful questions, and evaluate a problem from multiple angles. How can these be done?
The answer lies in critical thinking skills. That’s why employees who lack critical thinking skills are prone to making decisions based on assumptions, biases, or incomplete information. That often leads to poor decisions and failure to address problems quickly and efficiently.
And the longer these problems linger, the more money the organization loses.

Training Information
Delivery: E-learning (interactive, self-paced, and convenient).
How It Works: Using the unique login details we will send, participants simply access our learning portal with their browser and start learning.
Each participant will be in control of their learning pace and so can leverage our built-in concept of scaffolding to boost learning outcome.
Besides, they take the training at their convenience – any time of the day that suits their schedule and as frequently as they like until they finish.
Anywhere in the course a participant stops temporarily, it’s automatically saved so when they resume they continue from there by default.
Duration: Because it's self-paced, participants finish at different times. However, on the average, busy participants finish in 1 week.
Reports: We send reports periodically to your organization until all participants complete their training. For each participant, the reports show progress, performance score, total time spent learning, and the last time course was accessed.
Certificate: Each participant receives a certificate of training if course is successfully completed.
Access period: 30 days (can be extended).
Access device: Computer, Smartphone, or Tablet.
Comes with: Course transcripts for reference, and 100% money-back guarantee.
Learning Management & Support: We are usually in touch with every participant to encourage and support them until they finish. This leads to very high course completion rate.
Knowledge Application Aid (KAA): This is a tool we developed for our clients to use in driving on-the-job application of what their employees learned in our training. At no cost, KAA is available for use by organizations whose employees have taken our courses.
Learning Outcome: On LearnSmart, the learning outcome compares favorably with that of conventional training. This is because of increased level of participation through interactivity and learning-pace control.
Throughout each course, in an interactive manner, there are engaging questions and exercises that help assess the participant’s understanding as they learn. This approach gives concepts their own room to breathe and get digested.
And with control of their learning pace, each participant will have the ability to stop and reflect whenever they want, or return to previously-delivered content, and thus ensure a deeper understanding before continuing. A participant will have the time to digest and integrate information being presented into their existing understanding and context. This is how they make sense of it leading to higher levels of cognitive engagement and higher levels of retention.
For the best learning outcome, we recommend that training be taken in chunks of minutes consistently rather than taking it in a long stretch trying to finish quickly.
