Bottom Line Results
The Calumet Group understands that training should provide demonstrable results.  Over and over we have demonstrated that our training programs reduce start up time, meet or exceed learning curves, and have a positive effect on worker motivation and skills.
A Training Model That Works
The Calumet Group developed the Process Based Training Model.  This training model has proven highly successful in transferring technology in industry.  Most important, it encourages the development of "Thinking Workers" and serves as the technical training partner to the participative management movement.
Curriculum Design That Makes A Difference
We have segmented learning too long, then wondered why our workforce was not integrated safety, quality and team building into the every day function of their jobs.  The integrated curriculum design makes it possible to combine the elements of operation with safety, quality and team building so that they are no longer isolated from each other.  The result is a quality driven safe operation with all the component parts in concert with each other.
