    Default Target Training International

    Hi all. First year of UNI's gone quite well for me. Aside from the bit about how I still won't be let into the business school for another year, but ah well. Anyways, I'm currently in a business seminar which is supposed to help introduce us to the workings of the business school, as well as the majors in it.


    Well, the point of the topic is this: the other day, we were assigned to take a "survey" from Target Training International, the founder of whom is a UNI grad. They claimed the survey ordinarily runs a cost of 300+ dollars in the corporate world. Basically, it psycho-analyzed me and offers ways to "work with me", what my best work environment is, and so forth. I guess the question is- Any Orgah's here in the corporate world familiar with the rep of this thing? I'm a tad wary of internal advertising, which is sort of how it appeared. I'm not sure if I should make sure to store this away for future references in job interviews, or if its not really that important. For the time being, I've kept it stored away just to be safe.

    Somewhere relatively safe, behind some one else, preferably at the back

    300+ bucks seems like a lot of money for a student to spend on training. Doesn't your uni provide a similar service for free or at least a lot less?

    The uni I went to did at least but it wasn't widely advertised. Ask around a bit.

    Oh, no, you misunderstood me. The thing was free for us. They claimed it costs about 300 in the corporate world for employers who want to utilize it.
