Re: PPI Learnining - another one bites the dust

I had a good one toady. Turned up to train four bodies, two were no shows. The gig was 70 miles from home, four hours driving time. I telephoned the company to tell them know about the no-shows since I'll have to schedule in time to train them in the near future.

More income for you.

They tried to get me to charge for a half a day. I asked if the client was to be given two fees back (embarassed muttering and coughing), I've charged for a day+travel time, as usual. That didn't even qualify as "nice try" in my books, it was "taking the piss".

You have to give them some credit for trying it on.

Ah well, my own training facility is now built so I can look forward to turning the tables and screwing over both clients and trainers.

Best of luck?

Where are you based - and do you have a curriculum yet? Reply by private mail if you prefer.
