If your workforce is in need of specialized training for an upcoming job, Eastland-Fairfield offers group training unique to your needs. Choose to train and certify your staff only on the skills they need.

A microcredential is a short, focused certification that proves you’ve learned a specific skill or set of skills. Unlike a full diploma or degree, microcredentials are designed to be earned quickly—often through online courses, workshops, or hands-on projects.

Think of it as a digital badge or mini-certification that shows what you know and what you can do. Whether it's public speaking, coding, project management, or creative design, microcredentials help you build your resume, explore career interests, and stand out to colleges or future employers.

They’re stackable, shareable, and a great way to show off your strengths—one skill at a time.

Improve Employee Retention

Good employees are hard to find. Retaining them can also be a challenge. Offering employees opportunities to advance their skills through customized training can improve employee satisfaction and loyalty. A small investment in training existing employees can offset the costs associated with excessive overtime and high turnover rates due to low employee morale.

Improve Productivity

Improved productivity translates into increased profits. An investment in the skills of your existing workforce can increase productivity to allow for additional orders and increased revenues. Customized training can focus on the specific skills needed to improve cycle times and eliminate unnecessary waste. It can also improve the quality of performance and customer satisfaction. 

Remove Language Barriers

Do you have a language barrier in your workplace? We can help! English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) courses are available to improve communication skills.

Train at our facility OR at yours!

We have education centers located minutes from downtown Columbus and Lancaster. Each center includes state-of-the-art computer labs and meeting rooms with easy access from major interstates and highways. 

Our instructors will travel! When the need exists, our instructors are able to travel to your facility to provide on-site training. We recognize the fact that some training should occur in the same work environment as the work itself. We also recognize the challenges of forcing employees to travel away from work for training. 

Improve Computer Skills 

Do your employees struggle with Word documents or Excel spreadsheets? If so, we can teach them everything from the basics to the most advanced.

Assess the Skills of Your Potential New Hires 

Would you like to assess the employability skills of your potential new hires before you hire them? Hiring a new employee can be quite an investment. We provide Work Keys assessment services to employers who want to know what their employee candidates can do before they offer them a position.
