“I’ve developed an alliance with Oak — a company that has developed a wide assortment of training “modules” that you can download right now. When you download a module, you own it forever and have permission to edit it, customize it (logos, etc.), and deliver it as many times as you like. You will receive a Word document, PDF, PowerPoint, and comprehensive participant manual; your satisfaction or money back will be guaranteed. The modules are designed for trainers, coaches, and consultants looking to increase their clients' range of products and services. Oak content is also ideal for managers and employees looking to extend their knowledge of organizational, management, and employee titles.” – Tom Heck, President

“Time is money — we all know that. As coaches, our billable time is worth much money, but program development time is not. For a once-off cost per training pack, you’ve saved coaches countless hours of program development time. Plus, because of the high quality of your materials, you make us look good!
What you are offering for coaches is remarkable. Thank you! Thanks, also, for letting us customize the programs with our logos, taglines, etc. Your spirit of generosity is greatly appreciated.
Well done. You’ve put a lot of work into this, and I am thrilled to see the result. All the Best.” – Sylva K. Leduc, MEd (Psychology), MPEC Master Personal & Executive Coach.
“As someone involved in training for over twenty years, I’ve never known a resource as consistently valuable as Oak.
I’m always amazed at their willingness to provide purchasers with their complete range of presentations, regular updates, and new training packages at no additional cost. That makes my purchase increasingly valuable. Their speed in responding to questions is phenomenal.
One of the sessions I often provide is a Training the Trainers workshop. The first resource I encourage people to purchase is the Library of Resources from Oak. These packages have made my job infinitely more manageable, and I recommend them to anyone looking for the highest quality training materials.” – Jeffrey L. Buller, Senior Partner.
