Businesses needing to train multiple people should call to discuss customized courses to meet specific business needs.
Initially, we chose WITCC because of their High-Performance Management (HPM) program; however, we have continued to use them over the last three years due to their ability to customize their program to match our company's goals and initiatives.
Rebbel takes the time to get to know our organization, asks the right questions, then develops training based on what we want to accomplish. Rebbel has a way of connecting with our team members by using real workplace/life examples to pull it all together. Our teams look forward to having her back each year!

We've worked with WITCC for quite a few years now to assist us in providing employee educational options and opportunities, such as HPM, HPM2, and the series of Excel Level Trainings to name a few. We continue to partner with Michael, Carmen and Rebbel for a few primary reasons: They know and help our employees relate to the material they teach, they are extremely accommodating and flexible to work with and they're always looking for ways to work with us in better educating our workforce. Really, they often feel like a part of our organization with the level of investment they place in our employee experience. It's been a great working with this team and I'm sure it will be for many more years.

We have gotten received so much more. Carmen and Rebbel have uniquely identified real life leadership experiences and issues that management face on a day-to-day basis. Most importantly, they presented the topics in dynamic ways which that encourage discussion and learning with 'real life' skills that our leaders can utilize immediately. The program did not require has not resulted in extensive time commitments out of the office. Western Iowa Tech Community Colleges Corporate College department has been instrumental in helping us to:
* Strengthen our leaders effectiveness
* Build a strong team and positive work environment
* Address challenging management issues
Building an effective leadership team takes time, desire and hard work. If you are ready to put in the effort, I can assure you that working with the team at Western Iowa Tech will produce positive results.
