What is a TeleClass?

A TeleClass is a live telephone-based class. Calls are connected using state of the art telebridge technology. Participants receive a workbook for their program by e-mail, as well as a telephone number to connect to their class. TeleClasses are like a traditional classroom setting in that everyone can hear everyone else throughout the call. Class activities are also similar: discussions, role-playing, questions and answers, lecture, and sharing of ideas.

I've never heard of a TeleClass. Is this a new concept?

Telephone-based learning has been successfully used for professional training since the early 1990's. StaffingU is responsible for introducing the TeleClass format to the Staffing Industry.

Does training by telephone really work?

Not only does it work well, training by telephone has distinct advantages over traditional training methods. Since classes are typically limited to 55 minutes each week, information overload is virtually eliminated. This format also allows participants to immediately use what they learn the moment they disconnect from the call. Because of these and other factors, participants in our program often comment that they use more of the techniques and concepts than those they learned in a one or two-day in-person seminar.

Does training at StaffingU focus on using the Internet?

No. Our program is built upon a relationship-based selling and recruiting model. These techniques and methods create positive results on their own or when combined with Internet strategies that you may learn from another organization.

What telephone number will I dial to connect to my class?

The bridge telephone number for your class will be sent by e-mail at least one week prior to the start of your program. The telephone number will be within the continental United States (typically the 620 area code). Normal long distance charges will apply and are the responsibility of the participant.

Can I call in to my TeleClass from a speakerphone?

To ensure the highest quality sound and experience for all participants, calls from speakerphones are NOT permitted.

How many people are in each TeleClass?

Most programs at StaffingU are limited to 12 or less participants.

Does StaffingU offer onsite programs?

Yes, all of StaffingU's programs are offered through private onsite programs. For more details, go to Onsite Training & Speaking.

Are handbooks or manuals provided for TeleClass and onsite programs?

Course materials are provided by StaffingU for each program. Manuals for TeleClasses are sent by e-mail in PDF format (Adobe's Portable Document format) and include a link to the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software.
