About Great Circle Learning
Critical thinking, creative problem solving, leadership, mentoring, teamwork …
Since 1992 Great Circle Learning has been providing training programs that teach these fundamental business skills. Whether we deliver the training for you or you use our materials as the basis for building your own courses, Great Circle Learning training programs provide the relevant knowledge, practical tools and effective techniques that business professionals need to build their skills in these areas.
Consistency, productivity, and professional document layouts…
In addition to our training programs and our LeaderGuide Pro™ family of software tools, Great Circle Learning offers both instructional design and file conversion services. In other words, we'll use LeaderGuide Pro™ to convert your existing training content into LeaderGuide Pro™ documents. Once that conversion has been implemented you will be able to update and maintain your training materials easily, with or without LeaderGuide Pro™, because those materials will be Microsoft Office Word, PowerPoint and Excel files.
Our Mission
Our mission is to educate and develop individuals fully capable in critical thinking, leadership, teamwork, and mindful decision-making through organizational education, learning and consultative interventions.
