WHY IS THE WINTER SCHOOL FOR ME?

NEW!! Free exam retake if you fail your exam!

Minimises the impact on your time and maximises the learning/route to certification via best of video and live instructor class delivery.

‘Belts and Braces’ (very comprehensive!) coverage of the course material via:

• Full access to WorldatWork’s E-learning training videos for each GRP course.

• A full virtual day live-streamed with an experienced instructor who will offer an overview of key elements of the GRP course, bring the content to life and discuss how best to apply the knowledge/content in real-life situations.

• An opportunity after the class to have a one-hour, one-on-one follow-up session with the instructor to deal with any specific queries you may have.

1. PRE-RECORDED TRAINING VIDEOSDelegates will have prior online access to WorldatWork’s superb E-learning training videos for each GRP course, purchased by E-reward for this Winter School.

To get the most out of our GRP training, it’s essential that participants view the learning videos in advance of the virtual classroom day. For each GRP module, students should set aside about one day to familiarise themselves with the contents of the online video.

This opportunity to sit the full class online via E-learning training videos ensures you can prepare any questions you have for clarification/more detail for the instructor during the virtual one-day classroom. You can then email your questions and queries to the E-reward team a week before the class so your tutor can prepare some answers and bring them to life with some practical examples.

The E-learning package for WorldatWork covers the entire content of each GRP course, so we can use the virtual classroom day for revision, interactive exercises etc.

Students can access these videos for four weeks before their course starts. Access ends after 120 days.

This element of the school is a self-paced, online learning experience that allows students the flexibility to study at a time that suits them best.

You can access them as often as you like.

Delegates will also receive a PDF version of the WorldatWork course book.

2. ONE LIVE-STREAMED CLASSROOM DAY PER GRP MODULEEach course will then be reviewed in one compact classroom day that delegates attend via live streaming.

Delivered via ZOOM.

Starts at 9am with approx. 4.30pm finish (London, UK).

The day is split into four sessions:

• 9am to 10.15am

• Break

• 10.30am to 12 noon

• Break for lunch

• 1pm to 2.15pm

• Break

• 2.30pm to 4pm

During the full virtual classroom day, our experienced instructors will bring the content to life, answer queries, revise critical information, conduct practical exercises with the class, share real world examples, and discuss how best to apply the knowledge/content in delegates’ organisations.

Morning session – streamlined overview

• High-level run through of all the course materials, focusing on key learnings.

• Our tutors, all of whom are seasoned reward professionals, take you through the essential aspects of the GRP course.

• There’s another unique benefit – sessions throughout the morning specifically focusing on key concepts and areas that students need to know for the exam, explained and clarified by the tutor.

Afternoon session – practical examples, group exercises and case studies

It’s not just a revision class, we will cover any case studies and group exercises that are essential to getting maximum benefit from the course. The live-streamed classroom course is very interactive – you can ask questions, interact with our tutor and other delegates, break out into small groups, do all the group exercises – it’s just like attending in person in a physical classroom.

• Your tutors will bring the content to life and discuss how best to apply the knowledge/content in real-life situations.

• Features case studies wherever these are appropriate, in a very similar style to the original two-day in-person events.

• Includes the added value of face-to-face interaction with your tutor and other students and features Q&As.

• Features ‘breakout rooms’ – your tutor will split the class into separate teams so multiple participants can collaborate on group exercises.

3. PERSONAL, ONE-TO-ONE TUTORIAL, COACHING AND SUPPORT WITH YOUR TUTOR Duration: One hour by phone or Zoom.

• Our key aim is to support students through their study. To provide extra support, each course participant will be entitled to a private, one-to-one tutorial

session with their tutor, giving them the opportunity to ask questions about the course material once they have viewed it online and completed the virtual classroom day.

• This will provide strong individual support, so that they sit the exam well prepared. This is a unique benefit only offered by E-reward.

• Tutors will ensure that you are ready to take your exam with full confidence.

4. ONLINE EXAMS • Students schedule their online exam

(with instant results) at a time that suits them best.

• Exams must be taken within 120 days.

5. ONE FREE RETAKE IF YOU NEED IT Students are very unlikely to fail, but should you do so, we are so confident in our method of teaching, we will personally pay for you to resit the exam again. (Note: one free retake only.)

6. TUTORSWe have a fine mix of tutors, each one highly regarded and in huge demand as consultants as well as for their tutoring, training and mentoring work. Sticking our necks out here but honestly, we doubt if there is one question relating to reward they couldn’t answer – and back up with lots of interesting examples too.

So rest assured you can be confident trusting your GRP qualification in the very capable hands of this terrific trio of tutors.

FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS


FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS

Why has E-reward launched the GRP Winter School?

Money and time! We all want to save it and this way of learning enables you to achieve your GRP reward qualification in a matter of just a couple of months, saving you numerous trips to London. If you just want to attend one or two of these classes, that’s ok too. You don’t need to sign up for all 10 classes.

Do I have to come to London to do these courses in person in 2021?

Given the uncertainty surrounding the current Covid situation, we’ve decided to stream the courses live from our UK office via zoom to enable participants to attend courses virtually. Each live stream features ongoing interaction with your tutor throughout the entire live-streamed classroom event.

Tell me more about the content of the courses. What’s covered?

GRP is the only global qualification available and is recognised by all of the world’s leading organisations as a mark of professional capability in this field. It’s the most broad and in-depth reward training you will find.

The 10 course programmes are on our web site: https://www.e-reward.co.uk

Certification exams are uniform, whether undertaken in Australia, China, Europe, Middle East, Russia, South Africa and South America.

How experienced is my classroom instructor?

We look for a combination of hands-on practical experience and an engaging manner in our GRP tutors. You’ll be listening to your tutor for a long time! We make sure they are engaging, interesting and a superb communicator.

Our Winter School courses will be led by three top tutors, each one highly regarded and in huge demand as consultants as well as for their tutoring, training and mentoring work.

How much time do I need to take out of the office?

We don’t dawdle. We ensure the live-streamed, face-to-face learning element is completed in a single day. It’s just one day in your business diary per GRP module. It’s one intensive day focussing on nothing but your GRP study which has been proven time and time again to work for you.

For each GRP module, students should also set aside about one day to familiarise themselves with the contents of the online video. Plus one- hour for a private session with your tutor.

When will I gain access to the online learning videos?

Delegates will have prior online access to WorldatWork’s E-learning training videos for each GRP course, purchased by E-reward for this Winter School.

Review them carefully when it’s convenient to you. You can access them as often as you like and they will help ensure you pass first time and gain your accreditation.

Your access ends after 120 days.

How much study is required before the virtual classroom?

As well as the training videos, you will receive an electronic copy of the course book (PDF) so that you can print it out, read it ahead of the classroom day and then follow the live-streamed course, exactly as you would if you were live in the classroom. Each of the 10 GRP courses has an accompanying course handbook.


What time does the virtual classroom day start?

The virtual classroom day will start at 9am with a 4.30pm finish (London, UK).

Then take your exam right from the comfort and convenience of home or revise for a few more days and sit the exam the next week. The choice is yours. (Exams must be taken within 120 days of receiving the course materials.)

Are the E-reward classes taught in English?

Yes, our tutors are great English language communicators who have taught numerous GRP classes across Europe, Africa and the Middle East.

How interactive is the live-streamed class? Can I ask questions?

The live-streamed classroom course is very interactive – you can interact with your tutor and other delegates, break out into small groups, do all the group exercises, just like attending in person in a physical classroom.

•Features Q&As and ongoing interaction with the tutor throughout the entire virtual classroom event. • Includes virtual hand-raising. •Features ‘breakout rooms’ – your tutor will split the class into separate teams so multiple participants can collaborate on

group exercises.

Can I get personal tuition before I do my virtual classroom day?

We want to provide strong personal support throughout your Winter School experience.

To provide additional support, each course participant will receive a private, one-to-one tutorial session with their tutor, giving you the opportunity to ask questions about the course material once you have viewed it online.

Our students find this particularly helpful when English isn’t their first language and they need a particular point clarified.

When will I take the exam?

We are pleased to offer the exam online. This method (via WorldatWork partner Examity) allows you to take your exam at the date, time and location that best fits your needs (You must sit the exam within 120 days of receiving the course materials). You can sit the exam from the comfort of your own home or office – anywhere that you have internet access and a laptop.

You will need to register (WorldatWork will let you know how) and then schedule a time to take the exam. There are always lots of slots free – either immediately or sometime in the future. You will receive your results immediately.

What happens if I fail the exam?

Very few of our students fail to achieve a passing score in their exams. You are very unlikely to fail with us. But should you do so, we will personally pay for you to retake your exam – absolutely free of charge. (Note: one free retake only.)

What streaming platform do you use?

We stream the courses live from our office via Zoom to enable participants to attend courses virtually from wherever they wish.

What is the cost (£ GBP) of achieving the GRP qualification in London?

Each of the 10 individual courses costs £1,050 + VAT per delegate. That’s a total of £10,500 + VAT if you wish to attend all 10 GRP courses: 10 required exams, 10 coaching sessions via zoom, 10 classroom days, 10 course books, 10 sets of online training videos.

We help hundreds of professionals a year to become GRP certified. We look forward to seeing you!
