Who we are
Tailor-Made Training, LLC. currently offers training in Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and Publisher, as well as QuickBooks. We also offer certificate programs such as Professional Administrative Assistant, Medical Office Administration, and QuickBooks. Our unique approach to learning consists of allowing the student to learn today’s most essential computer programs and office skills at their own pace. Our students are encouraged to ask questions until they are comfortable with the material presented and can work effectively and independently. We train students on what they need to learn to be successful in their chosen industry.
What we do
Tailor-Made Training works in quite a unique way. We conduct one-on-one lectures in a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. For students who do not have a computer, we can provide a laptop for use during the training session. Students will then complete hands-on assignments in class, and are encouraged to complete homework to reinforce the material learned during class. If the student does not have access to a computer at home, they can access one at their local library. We work at the pace of the student, not the pace of a classroom. We schedule meeting times that are convenient to the client's schedule. The curriculum is tailored to the individuals’ career interests by assigning projects that will help them when they become employed.
Where do we have instruction?
Instruction is conducted in a library most convenient to the student so that travel time is kept to a minimum and class time is maximized. Convenient scheduling is also tailored to our students’ schedules to fit in with work and family life. Courses can also be conducted over Zoom. At Tailor-Made Training, LLC., it’s all about tailoring the training to our students!
What do students do?
All students complete hands-on assignments to learn how to create professional documents relative to their particular interest or career path. Each student will create a professional portfolio that can be used in an interview to showcase the skills acquired. Students are given step-by-step notes for each application to reference when completing assignments. All textbooks are free of charge. At the end of each course, students will be given an assessment and graded according to Tailor-Made Training, LLC’s pass/fail standards. Students who pass the course will be given a certificate of completion.
How do I enroll?
Students are required to fill out the admissions Enrollment Application/Agreement with the required information. Once approval for training is secured, the student works with their assigned trainer to work out a schedule that is convenient to both the student and trainer. If a student is seeking programs and training funded through the RI-DLT, such as the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), training may only be provided to individuals who qualify for the program and only if funds are available.
What else will I learn to better my career?
After completion of the program, Tailor-Made Training, LLC., will assist students with creating cover letters, reference sheets, and resumes. Students will be coached on how to apply for jobs and learn the process of interviewing for the job they applied for. Students will also learn proper job searching techniques in order to secure employment.
