Client Testimonials

Ricardo Pereira

As a Production Supervisor, I wanted to understand root cause analysis concepts in a comprehensive way. One of my colleagues suggested Spoclearn’s RCA through Six Sigma training which was for 2 days. During the course, the trainer helped me to clearly understand various RCA concepts, tools, and mechanisms that I could incorporate in my organization to better understand the root cause of any problem and how to avoid the same in the future. Extremely helpful for anybody who is part of the Quality Management domain.

Adam Fraser

I was extremely happy with the Lean Awareness training delivered by Spoclearn. This was as an instructor-led online training where the trainer was an expert in all the lean concepts and tools and helped me understand how to use the same in my day-to-day activities. I would definitely recommend their quality management training programs.

Josh Philip

It was a great learning experience for my ITIL 4 Foundation training which was conducted online and trainer Pratap was completely knowledgeable in the ITIL 4 concepts and helped me to transition from ITIL v3 to ITIL 4. In Pratap, Spoclearn has a gem of a trainer.
