"The trainers I have worked with through KCT are wonderful. They do an exceptional job tailoring course content to our organization, which ultimately makes the learning experience far more meaningful than if we were to utilize services from off the shelf. "

"Ketels Contract Training's DiSC training is a reality check on who you are in the office. Mr. Wilson, KCT's instructor, led our group through four hours of much laughter, a few tears and revealing insights. No matter how well you think you know yourself, this session will help you see how others see you at work."
Jim Waterbury

"Mirenco needed a streamlined importing process and reporting database to turn multiple source raw data into timely professional reports for our customers. Off-the-shelf products did not lend themselves to our start-up company’s needs and proprietary information kept us from outsourcing. Ketels Contract Training offered a discreet solution in which development of our database included training of Mirenco employees. Not only did we get the product we needed, we now have the added benefit of employees that manage the database and make changes as our customers’ needs grow."

"To take the next step upward in our business we knew we needed to know how to use Microsoft Word and Excel. We were fortunate to connect with Ketels Contract Training and to have Chris Case provide the training. The instruction was very thorough. The skill levels of our group ranged from beginners to participants with good, working knowledge. Chris was able to work with each one of us and she delivered the training at levels we all could understand. The classes were lively and we had excellent interaction with the instructor."

"Ketels Contract Training's DiSC training gave our leaders great tools in understanding their behavioral styles of leading. KCT's instructor was a dynamic, engaging, and fun facilitator. Very worthwhile for our organization."

"The Duane Arnold Energy Center Training Department has benefited from the training services provided by Ketels Contract Training for several years. Dr. Corbin (instructor) presented the courses on Learning Theory and Presentation Skills (Train the Trainer) to our new instructors. These courses have provided a solid basis to build their instructional skills."

Accreditation Coordinator Duane Arnold Energy Center
"Although we are a small company, we put a great deal of value on continuous learning. Our people are often stretched pretty thin and Ketels Contract Training offers the flexibility, convenience (on-site), and focus we need in our training. Chris Case does a great job interacting with participants. In the beginner's class, she answered questions and taught ideas from several levels. Participants benefited from her "tips" on how to accomplish things several ways and she did a wonderful job personalizing the training to our specific needs. I would recommend that your company use KCT for a "no-hassle" training solution!"

"Thanks to Ketels Contract Training we now have a local source for our computer training. The participants' comments included: 'Computer training at our office--what a treat!' 'The instructor was knowledgeable, courteous and friendly.' 'The setup was excellent, including a computer for each participant to use.' Thank you, Ketels Contract Training, for your prompt and professional answer to our computer training needs."

"Home Shopping Network has traditionally used standard off-site training to meet the Microsoft training needs of our employees. This year we decided to take a new approach with Ketels Contract Training by providing an on-site class for all Outlook users. We were able to customize the training to meet the various levels of our users, through the use of a needs assessment. This allowed our company to provide comprehensive training at a lower cost per participant, and to schedule the sessions to complement our demanding work schedules. Our staff enjoyed the opportunity to interact with one another during the training sessions, while updating their Outlook skills. Instructor, Chris Case, is a joy to work with and she interacted with each student in a personal, helpful style. Students appreciated Chris' ability to "speak on their level" while creating an environment of open learning. I would recommend Ketels Contract Training to companies who are looking for a way to encourage quality employee development without taking them off-site and without taking staff away from their daily responsibilities."

"Ketels Contract Training has brought technology to life here at Lincoln Savings Bank! We have increased both our efficiency and effectiveness with the Microsoft Office package thanks to the instruction of Chris Case. Chris is a dynamic trainer with the perfect combination of solid content knowledge and practical application tips. She received rave reviews from both our resident tech experts and our novice users. Her ability to "make it easy" is second to none! KCT provided a "no hassle" training process starting with a full-scale inventory and ending with session evaluations. Joan set up the tailored training for us to meet our time frame, budget and employee needs."

"Ketels Contract Training has been a great resource for our organization. Their flexibility and willingness to customize the training to meet our needs has been invaluable. I no longer struggle searching for application training that "fits." I know Ketels Contract Training and their knowledgeable instructors have a commitment to quality training unmatched in our area!"

"We were extremely pleased with the training provided by KCT. We had a group of employees with various levels of training and experience in Excel, and KCT developed a customized training course that allowed this diverse group to learn together. KCT worked with us to discover our specific needs and focused the elements of the program on the specific training we needed, rather than trying to train the group on everything Excel has to offer. The ability to ask questions both in and after the sessions, gave our group the ability to apply what they learned to their work saving them hours of effort. We were so pleased we scheduled additional sessions with them and would recommend them to anyone needing results oriented training"

"When Ferguson Enterprises set out to create a leadership development series this year, we wanted to offer relevant programming that could be put to use immediately by the team. Ketels Contract Training offered a fresh alternative to "canned" leadership development training programs, by working with us to customize the content and delivery to meet our business needs. KCT allowed us to provide input and customize features to each session for maximum impact. In addition, we were able to conduct the full series onsite to accommodate four separate shifts, due to the flexibility of the facilitator. The feedback from participants was excellent, and the results of the training were visible in the workplace as a result of the leadership development series. We are very pleased with the tangible results provided by KCT. "
