PLAN YOUR TRAINING

What you need
for the next step.

Request one or more places in an open course. The eight-participant minimum applies to the whole cohort across clients. For a private group, request a quote with the program code, participant count, preferred dates and billing details. Your proposal will specify scope, facilitator, format, price, taxes and confirmation terms.

For businesses and institutions, we coordinate documentation required by your purchasing process. Participation in a procurement procedure depends on its specific requirements.

BUY WITH CLARITY

What you need to know.

What do we receive before booking?

A proposal with the program, objectives, syllabus and hours, facilitator, format, dates, participants, deliverables, assessment, price, taxes and terms. Where your purchasing process requires it, we coordinate the applicable facilitator CV and supporting documentation.

Can we request a single place?

Yes, request one or more places in an open course. The eight-person minimum applies to the whole cohort across clients. Private groups are quoted according to scope and support requirements.

How can we assess what the team will learn?

Each program identifies its audience, prerequisites, final deliverable and assessment. This sample illustrates the judgment participants practice. Level and objectives are agreed before starting; the final deliverable provides evidence of learning.

What does the certificate confirm?

It is a Crocode participation certificate recording completed hours. It requires at least 80% live attendance and submission of the final activity. It is not a vendor certification or external accreditation.

Do we need paid licenses or internal data?

The samples use synthetic data. Each program specifies tools and prerequisites; any additional licenses or usage charges are detailed before booking. The core technical AI and Python labs can run without a paid AI account.

How are dates, changes and cancellations handled?

Only courses displaying a calendar have scheduled dates. Your proposal specifies course confirmation, access, payment and change or cancellation terms before enrollment is accepted. An inquiry does not reserve a place.

LET’S DESIGN YOUR PROGRAM

What does your team
want to learn?
