Home Page >About Us > Why We’re Different
While there are several good training organizations, we are different. Our training is conducted by arbitrators and former administrative Administrative judges Judges for the EEOC and MSPB – with cumulative experience of more than _____ years deciding cases. We weave in multiple real life examples based upoin cases that we have decided or have otherwise been involved. And we are frequently commended for making our training classes interesting and engaging.
We know the federal sector inside and out. We know it in a practical and not just in a theoretical way. There are very few federal sector workplace situations we have not seen and addressed. We are frequently called upon by federal agencies to help in crafting a solution to a workplace problen – often
sensitive issues of some notoriety – and we have been successful, in providing an investigation of a sensitive issue, training and/or consulting with senior managers, EEO and HR staff.
