GREAT Series: Greater Skills for Greater Performance

Every time you open Outlook, build a PowerPoint deck, or run a meeting in Teams, you’re doing more than managing tasks. You’re making decisions, driving communication, leading projects, and advancing your goals. 


You already use software and soft skills together...so why not learn them together? 


The GREAT Series is your fast-track to practical, career-building results. These one-day workshops combine hands-on technical training with professional development content designed to help you lead, manage, and increase your productivity.  


We have five GREAT Series for you to choose from:

Why We Developed the GREAT Series

You need both software and professional skills to succeed. Many training providers offer them individually, but in reality, you're using them simultaneously. Why not learn the skills in the same manner that you'll use them? 

 

Building and delivering great presentations, as well as fostering team collaboration, is essential in business. With PowerPoint, Teams, and Outlook featuring all sorts of new tools, layouts, and themes, communicating and presenting collaboratively and compellingly are skills to master to stay ahead. You want to learn to use the software and soft skills to your full potential. 


  • Tired of spending hours trying to figure out the best way to use the software? 
  • Have a hard time with the best way to communicate that gets others to take action? 
  • Wish you knew the best use of technical and professional skills techniques? 


Our Great Series training is the perfect solution! 

Learn GREAT Skills Online or in Person

In private classes or groups, you’ll learn from our experienced and friendly facilitators and instructors who know how to make you feel comfortable in your learning environment.  


Our public classes are regularly scheduled and are a cost-effective way for individuals to learn. Our experienced facilitators and instructors offer engaging, practical sessions that will help you bring the skills you need to life.  


A more cost-effective way for larger groups to learn is with private classes held within your organization. Here, you can register multiple students together, with the classes optimized to focus on the topics covered in the Great series.  


Where can I take a Great Series class? These classes are offered exclusively online with live instructors, so you can learn from anywhere.  

Why Take a GREAT Series Program with Us

We know that training needs to be practical, flexible, and worthwhile. That’s why the GREAT Series is designed as a one-day crash course that blends the tech tools you use every day with the professional skills that help you lead, communicate, and grow. 


At The Great Canadian Training & Consulting Company, we believe that learning should be accessible, engaging, and tailored to real-world workplace needs. Whether you're joining a public session or organizing a private session for your team, our experienced instructors guide you every step of the way. 


Our support doesn’t stop when the course ends. Each course includes 30 days of FREE after-training support to help you apply what you’ve learned. Because the way we see it, your course is more than a one-time event. It’s part of your lifelong learning journey.  



What if you need more tailored guidance? You can schedule follow-up coaching sessions to add on to your learning experience and focus on your unique challenges. 

Choose Your Topics or Customize Your Course

We can also provide customized training tailored to your specific needs. You can mix and match from our various training topics to create a course specifically tailored to your needs.  


You can even learn using your real-life challenges and working files instead of our packaged exercises and scenarios if you prefer. 


 Please let us know what you want, and we’ll work with you to develop the course you’re looking for.
