Project Matrix from the Configura Group is a service that provides organizations with trainers who train their employees for a fee. How it works is that the project matrix team designs training classes for all levels of users and will set up meetings with their clients beforehand to ascertain their needs and goals for the training. They generally begin their classes on general computer functions like opening a program, working with files, and understanding various screen layouts. After their trainers cover the basics, they would then move on to more advanced topics. Throughout the courses, hands-on exercises are utilized to help learners to get a better grasp of the material. As you can see, this approach to training is not the same as others on our list. The skills training matrix software is not available to the organizations to directly execute, but instead, it is executed by the team from Project Matrix. Given this, it may not be the most flexible training system and may not be suited for many organizations.
