TAILORED CORPORATE TRAINING
The CEP organizes tailored workshops and seminars to meet organizational training needs. Trainings have been delivered to companies in a range of industry sectors including banking, financial and academic institutions, hospitals, NGOs, and Ministries of the Lebanese Republic.

In addition, the capacity building and quality control mechanisms allow the CEP to handle large numbers of on-site training. A recent example would be the training of 485 staff members in the English language at the UMC-Rizk Hospital.
In addition, many of the on-site corporate training programs and workshops are designed around the working schedules of individuals and employees. All training materials are created with clearly defined learning objectives that include skills, knowledge, and abilities.
