PARTICIPANT’S COMMENTS
I was initially hesitant on the HCG COE program due to it being 100% online – in the past I have favored in-person teaching and collaboration. Turns out, I was fortunate it was (due to Covid-19).
I have taken great programs before, most notably Prosci’s Change Management Certification program, but have to admit that I have never had the amount of instant applicable material like I have had with your COE track. The project work throughout the course was amazing and provided an opportunity for me, my colleagues and my supervisor to put “to the test”. We have or are currently utilizing some of the concepts around Engagement, Change Management and Team Effectiveness as a result. Very exciting indeed! The passion that Shreya and the team have provided from our introductory call to completion have been appreciated. Thank you for doing what you do regarding evidence-based talent management, this was a key deciding factor for me at the front end.
