One-stop shop for training program

MANILA, Philippines - The financial crisis of 2009 taught a lot of companies to spend prudently and invest wisely in training programs. HR managers and training coordinators therefore have an enormous challenge this 2010 to find a venue that offers effective training programs and learning solutions yet at the same time fulfill the goals of the company without breaking the budget.

Aware of the predicament faced by the country’s training managers, the Meralco Development Center (MMLDC), moving towards its 11th year as the top training center in the country, is gearing up as a “one-stop shop” for all your company’s learning, training and corporate events needs.

“We are aware of the challenges faced by these managers since their companies are reeling from the effects of the financial crisis and natural calamities of last year. They are tasked to boost the morale of their people, to put back confidence in their sales team, to motivate their members into achieving their goals. MMLDC is a one-stop learning solutions center where all your requirements and demands can be addressed,” said MMLDC managing director, Agnes Fidelino. “MMLDC takes pride in customizing program design and implementation to address the performance needs of an organization.

As a “one-stop shop,” MMLDC offers a hassle-free, worry-free experience which a lot of HR and training coordinators and company leaders have appreciated through the years. One of them is the Tax Reform Administration Group (TRAG) of the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) which is a regular client of MMLDC.

“We always need to update and motivate our group. And MMLDC has been our partner as it has been our provider as a venue in the conduct of trainings, workshops especially in our strategic planning,” said Nema Larines, OIC of TRAG.

MMLDC being a “one-stop training shop” adds value to its services because it offers learning and technical solutions such as programs for learning and development, building and enhancing teams, performance improvement, e-learning and blended learning, and learning management systems. Its training facilities from function rooms to outdoor areas designed for teambuilding workshops (paintball and rainforest) are ideal venues for groups of various sizes. MMLDC can also provide expert advice or management for your events.
