About Beacon

Beacon History

Beacon Training was founded in 1986 to meet the intricate training needs of Corporate America. We discovered that corporations needed to train their workforce in technical subjects quickly on a limited budget. Our background in IT management, industrial engineering, and HR enabled us to understand the problems our clients faced as well as craft the perfect curriculum to train their workforce. Our time spent creating training courses and managing the training functions in corporate America resulted in the generation of a list of top-notch instructors that now teach for Beacon. It was a natural progression to provide these courses, with seasoned instructors, to our clientele. Beacon partners with their clients to become their back-office Training Department saving their staff time and providing increased productivity. We now serve corporations, government agencies, and military installations globally. The courses and webinars provided by Beacon Training Services, Inc., are open to all public, corporate, and governmental groups.

Instructors

We search for our trainers globally. Our extensive vetting process enables us to ensure that the instructor has both classroom and relevant industry expertise.  Using evaluations and verbal feedback, we monitor their performance so that we can maintain our high standards.  Many instructors have worked with Beacon for over 20 years, and our clients request them by name for repeated classes.

We ensure that they are:

    • Dynamic and engaging, in step with current trends in their disciplines
    • Experienced in adult learning principles, leading students to self-discovery
    • Savvy of the inner workings of government and corporate situations
    • Collaborative to ensure the training, exercises and role-plays address your issues
    • Responsive to questions and suggestions during class
    • Dedicated to meeting the objectives for your training
