Independent trainers, coaches and consultants are free to use this material in their group or one-to-one sessions, webinars, teleclasses, ecourses, classes by email and in fact any way they want without extra cost or restrictions.

| Q. |
How are Oak Customers using your training modules? |
| A. |
Here are some of the innovative ways are training modules are being employed around the world.
Independent Trainers
Trainers worldwide are delivering our modules to their customers and extending the range of products that they can offer. They are also adding their own logos and branding the material as their own at no extra cost.
Trainers within smaller enterprises especially find that this offers them a considerable source of competitive advantage at a minimal cost. Whereas previously they may have only offered a small amount of titles now they can offer over 50 organizational, management and employee titles.
Coaches and Mentors
Coaches and mentors have also been sourcing our material to generate new streams of revenue and extend the service that they can offer their clients.
For example coaches and mentors have sourced our material, re-branded the titles by adding logos and examples and when required deliver the content for their clients. Other coaches have told us that they send the material to their clients to reinforce learning points discussed in sessions.
We find that many coaches report using our training content in their one-to-one sessions, webinars, teleclasses, ecourses, classes by email and in fact in hundreds of ways without extra cost or restrictions.
Large Organizations
Given the challenges of delivering consistent training across large staff groups a useful route that large organizations has taken is to make the content available in an e-learning format or through a resource library on an internal intranet. With no extra cost involved it has proven a great option for larger organizations.
Organizational Trainers
Many organizational trainers are combining a series of modules to introduce employee and management development programs (e.g., Teamwork; Problem Solving; Customer Driven Organization; Presentation Skills; Interpersonal Skills; Customer Relationship Management).
By mixing and matching titles we have also been told that trainers are developing variations on themes to meet the training needs of their organizations.
Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders
Many managers, supervisors and team leads with responsibility for staff have sourced content from us to improve their own learning and to train their staff. These customers report that it assists them in delivering a consistent message and also ensures greater ownership for activities within their teams.
Consultants
Over the last few years many independent consultants have sourced our content to increase their own knowledge base and to discover new ways to improve their service.
Education
A growing number of our customers are from universities where students and lecturers are sourcing our content to compliment their lectures and provide training material created by industry. The practical focus of our material is proving a great hit especially with business students.
Individual Learners
Although the examples above relate many to learning within organizational settings we also have heard from many individual learners who source our content to improve their own learning and development.
