We have trained over 20,000 of NASA employees playing a pivotal role in making the agency one of the best agencies to work for in the Federal government.

For over 20 years, we have conducted training through three core modalities; Classroom training, E-learning, and Webinar formats.

Classroom Training

CLA provides interactive classroom training and workshops in a wide variety of subjects, including conflict prevention and management, anti-harassment, and diversity and inclusion. Sessions are typically designed for a maximum of 30 participants per class to foster interactivity and sharing of experiences. Classes range from 2 to 8 hours.

For busy managers, executive briefings can be provided.

General informational briefings are also available for employees. For example, an organization within an agency may require an introduction to Diversity & Inclusion and its global application –what it is, how it’s employed, its benefits, etc.

E-Learning

CLA provides computer-based training on a variety of subjects such as No FEAR, anti-harassment, worker disability, and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). E-learning provides the participants with the flexibility to take a program at their convenience, receiving a consistent, vetted message. 

CLA recommends this delivery approach when the agency or organization is required to take corrective action, and classroom training is time and cost-prohibitive (judgments, settlements, etc.); where regulations require that all employees be trained (No FEAR Act,); and to reinforce classroom learning. CLA’s learning management system can issue assessments online and automatically issue certificates of course completion. 

Managers can also view and print reports to verify that participants have completed training.

Webinars

CLA Webinars is an effective vehicle by which participants can learn from each other, subject-matter experts (Host), and learning tools. CLA webinars allow participants to break out into monitored groups that are directed by the host and to collectively return to the large group for additional discussion. Webinars allow agency peer groups (in some cases, cross-peer groups) to broaden understanding of the subject-matter and the practices of the particular agency.
