COMPANY PROFILE
Offering Over 175 Courses in 19 Different Subject Areas ABOUT US Our name says it all, Alusani® means ‘helping to build and grow’ in Tshivenda, and we believe that our training courses do just that for both your Course Participants and organisation as a whole. Our short courses are not run-of-the-mill, because we do things a little differently than other training companies you may have worked with in the past. We research skills gaps and from there we then design and develop all of our training courses in great detail with one aim in mind - to help you take your Course Participants and your company to the next level. Having this capability in-house allows us to conduct an in-depth training needs analysis, pinpoint urgent skills gaps and design practical learning modules which are highly relevant to your working environment.
