Graduates Training Feedback
August 7, 2009 by ProGrad · Leave a Comment
ProGrad is an assessment, placement and training centre that aims at assisting recent university graduates in securing a full time position within a fast growing international company. Once we place graduates into client partner companies of ours, we invite them back to attend 4 training courses in their first year of employment.
ProGrad Module 1: An Introduction to Professional Sales and Marketing is a 3 day course that is run to assist graduates in learning the business basics such as time management, goal setting and how to build a strong pipeline.
Below are some comments that were left by Sydney ProGrad graduates who attend the Module 1 course in July.
“Kingsley is an engaging and extremely likeable speaker. The course gave me a clearer sense of understanding and also actually really motivated me to set achievable and measurable career related goals.” David, ProGrad Graduate.
“The trainer made it easy to participate and very engaging. Excellent use of real life credible examples made it really interesting.” Jess, ProGrad Graduate
“The workshop was very much applied to the business world and the examples used were very beneficial. I found the course overall to be very enjoyable and memorable.” Lucas, ProGrad Graduate
Here at ProGrad the more feedback we receive the better! If you have recently been through a ProGrad training course, please feel free to let us know what you thought of the course by calling the ProGrad Graduate Management team in Sydney on 02 8235 8300.

“First of all, I would like to thank you and the rest of the staff at Prograd that helped to see me through the Assessment day.
It was a very enriching experience and your talk particularly, left me very inspired. Job applications and interviews has always given me the jitters, but yesterday I got out of Prograd thinking ‘Another interview?… Bring it on!’ I only hope I can maximize the tips you shared with us.”

ProGrad Graduate Feedback

As an organisation, ProGrad continues to gain feedback from graduates that have completed our training courses in order to continually change and adapt to ensure the modules are all helpful and effective. Out feedback forms allow graduates to comment on the workshop structure, relevance, effectiveness and whether it can be allied to their roles.
Leigh, a ProGrad graduate started his role within a business to business sales team over 9 months ago. After attending Module 4: Key Account Management he left with the following feedback: “I found the course to be very applicable to my role where I look after our bronze accounts. The use of real life examples in parts of the course help make the links between the topics and my role. Overall I think the training is a good indicator on what styles/techniques I do/should use and the associated results they can bring.”

Forums are a great way for companies to access feedback about the “customer experience”. Whether positive or negative, we need to hear it.
Please feel free to write a post about your experience, we do value your feedback as its essential for our internal development as a company.
If you’ve recently attended a ProGrad assessment day, or some ProGrad training, we’d love to hear from you.
