Tanya Thiart – Performance Development Practitioner
I would easily recommend [Optimum] to any company wishing to apply learning across the manufacturing value chain. Their programs are well laid out across the value chain and the way they are presented made it easy for me to establish a learning pathway for a learning regardless of what level he or she enters their pathway on.
