On one of my grocery shopping trips the other day, I went to the refrigerated section to purchase eggs. I am usually in a rush so don’t even look at the selection. I just grab and go. This time, I looked over the eggs that were available.
As I looked over the selection to find the kind my husband requested. I counted over 20 different kinds/brands of eggs. Seriously, what happened to just buying eggs?! When did we start needing over 20 options?
I was a little overwhelmed. I shouldn’t be overwhelmed buying eggs. I realized that feeling is what people have when they are looking at all of the computer training options. When you do a search on the Internet for computer training, you get hundreds of thousands of hits.
How do you make sense of it all? How do you narrow it down to the training solution that is right for you and your corporation? Since I’ve been doing training for so long, I forget how hard it is at the beginning to determine your needs. Then, you have to dig through all of the training companies who offer their own brand of training.
In the past, I’ve been at training companies that offer only one style or another of training. That makes me thankful to work for a company like Versitas, who offers multiple styles of training but who walks you through the maze of training decisions. We help narrow down the number of options to what works best for the client. We discuss the needs of the client first and then build a customized session or sessions around their actual needs.
As an overwhelmed consumer, I’d have been grateful to have someone there with me to explain the differences in the eggs. There are so many terms in the egg world, farm-raised, cage-free, organic, natural, etc. I may think I know what each of those means, but my meanings may not fit the standards of the egg industry. In the world of computer training, it’s nice to know there are a few good eggs out there!
