Training

While online training serves a purpose, NKENT CONSULTING is convinced that there is no substitute for face-to-face training where trainer and trainees can interact. The trainer brings years of experience with current illustrations that improve comprehension. Trainees interact with each other and have their "what if," and “how do we do this,” questions answered. In some instances, the answers come straight from the Competent Authority.
