S/P2 has added two new training packages to its available curriculum: one focused on human resources training and one focused on soft skills training.

S/P2 has added two new training packages to its available curriculum: one focused on human resources training and one focused on soft skills training. These training packages are intended for use by shops as well as career technical education programs.

“The HR courses are must-haves in today’s very public,” said S/P2 President, Kyle Holt. “Hollywood and Washington D.C. are embroiled in sexual harassment scandals, but this issue affects everyone. Every business and school should be conducting training to protect themselves and those employed or studying under their roofs. In addition, courses that provide information about active shooter situations, bullying, and other topics can help manage risk while protecting staff and students.”

The S/P2 Human Resources Training Package includes online courses addressing sexual harassment training for employees and managers, active shooter situations, violence in the workplace, bullying in the workplace, and substance abuse awareness.

“We’re also extremely excited about our soft skills training,” said Kathleen Nguyen, S/P2’s Director of Business Development. “Many shops want to see improved life skills both from students coming out of career tech programs and their existing staff. We’re helping shops and schools improve communication skills and professionalism. And let’s be real. Consumers expect their car to be repaired properly, but it’s the personal touch and trust that soft skills provide that often keeps customers coming back.”

The S/P2 Soft Skills Training Package includes courses on personal professionalism, developing effective communication skills, creating a customer-centered culture, telephone skills, and meeting management. Career tech schools also receive the “Land that Job! Building a Resume” course.
