Education

Steps to Success – It’s easy as 1-2-3-4!

1 – Find Your Score

After you are registered with Learning Without Scars, you must enroll in a Skills and Knowledge Assessment most relevant to the education you seek. This allows us to determine your specific skills and knowledge level (Developing, Beginning, Intermediate, Advanced) and your personalized educational path.

Our Comprehensive Skills Assessments are based upon an individual’s knowledge and skills within their specific job function. These assessments can be used to provide in-depth and specialized evaluations of new hires, prospective employees, as well as individuals on the job today.

It is a way to measure what an individual knows about their role. Without this measurement, it can be nearly impossible to develop a meaningful training plan or career path. Our programs and assessments take the concept of “customers for life” to the next level — employees for life! Our goal is to help you build a meaningful future and ensure it lasts a lifetime.

With a combined experience of more than fifty years in education, training, and employee development, we have arrived at some important conclusions. These assessments are the result of in-person courses, webinars, one-to-one coaching programs, as well as our online learning platform.

Your employees are a key asset in the business you do every day. Assessments and employee development programs foster a continued circle of success for the business. We have assessments for the Parts business, the Service business, as well as Product Support Selling and Marketing.

  1. Recruiting: The assessments can be used in recruiting employees. In conjunction with background checks and interviews, the assessment gives you much more information on the applicants before they are hired.
  2. Performance Reviews: The assessments should also be used in the annual performance review with each employee.
  3. Wages and Salaries: The assessments can even be used as an objective foundation related to the establishment of the wages and salaries paid to the employees.
  4. Employee Development: The assessments have been developed to be used to create individualized employee development programs for each employee in the parts and service business teams.

These skills assessments are only available through our online learning platform.

2 – Get Educated

After completing your assessment, the next step is to enroll in the classes tailored to the score you received on your assessment. Classes can be purchased individual, or you can save money by purchasing 4 class bundles. Take the classes at your own pace and increase your knowledge!
