IER Fujikura determined that it was important to expand its employees鈥 knowledge base and understanding in the topic of Project Management. In fall 2015, IER Fujikura professional, Vancroft (Van) Culliton, Quality Engineer, attended 麻豆视频鈥檚 Certificate in Project Management. Culliton was interested in taking a project management program to build upon his knowledge of how to run and manage a successful project.
麻豆视频鈥檚 Certificate in Project Management provided Culliton with the skills needed to achieve this goal. With this training, Culliton saw areas in which his team could also benefit. It was important for him to bring his team up-to-speed on project management terminology and provide them with the same language to work together as effectively, efficiently and inclusively as possible.
THE SOLUTION
IER Fujikura expanded their partnership with 麻豆视频鈥檚 Center for Corporate and Professional Development and brought project management training on-site to their organization. Similar to Culliton鈥檚 experience, fellow coworkers were not sure what to expect.
麻豆视频 facilitator Bob Jewell, customized the training to meet the strategic needs of the company. Incorporating current projects IER Fujikura鈥檚 team were working on, Jewell was able to engage the participants and provide training that was applicable to their daily operations.

This feedback was very much appreciated. Bob provided credibility when it came to managing projects,鈥 stated Culliton.
