Allow us to provide on-site consulting so that your personnel can go from inspiration to implementation. To discuss the unique consulting needs of your institution, get in touch with us. Depending on the requirements of each institution, the specifics and logistics of each consulting engagement will change. On the other hand, many of our consulting agreements call for at least three days in a row on a campus for each visit, and a minimum of three visits annually.
