Center offers tailor-made Learning Solutions and Training Programs

“Hala Bira!” is the traditional battle cry associated with the Ati-atihan festival, a resounding call to action and unparalleled commitment.  This was also the same battle cry made by the people of Starbucks when they held their teambuilding recently.  With Starbucks being a global brand, MMLDC made sure that it will be one of its kind and memorable by coming up with a tailor-made program that puts a distinct Filipino flavor to the experience. 

The Starbucks group’s teambuilding seminar, aptly named Viva Starbucks! Hala Bira! Celebrating Filipino Festivals, incorporated elements from Filipino festivals to the challenges, from food to traditional customs, even the kind of entertainment unique to each fiesta. It took the participants to a virtual tour of the country, giving them a taste of the rich cultural traditions of the country, while integrating elements of nature into the activities, giving value to the environmental aspects of the festivities.

“With teambuilding sessions and training modules becoming standard requirements for any company's advancement, it stands to reason that there are always means to make them better and more effective. MMLDC has done exactly that with its current practices regarding their creation: always custom-designed and never ordinary,” Vivien Arnobit, Director for Academic Services of MMLDC, said.

MMLDC's Learning Solutions are designed with the needs of the clients and beneficiaries in mind. Special attention is given to every detail of the experience, from the setting to the structure, all the way to specific implementation. The result is the creation of a unique learning experience that is particular to each client. This makes sure that all the distinct needs of the client are handled, leaving no stone unturned.

"Companies keep coming back to MMLDC and avail of the specialized training programs for these reasons.  They also appreciate the fact that MMLDC offers hassle-free service, a one-stop shop that provides for all their needs and demands: world-class hotel accommodations, state-of-the-art function rooms and recreational facilities, events management (especially during fellowship night), even delectable meals served to the participants,” she added.

MMLDC also offers flexibility in their training modules to suit the client’s parameters: whether a company needs an intensive and highly technical workshop or a lighthearted and fun-filled seminar can be accommodated.  It also puts a high premium on safety: medical and safety officers are always on standby to monitor and check the activities so that it conforms to safety standards and to avoid untoward incidents.  Moreover, MMLDC does off-site training based on clients’ preferences. It also values the client’s opinions through after-sales service, checking with the clients if their desired goals and output are met. 

Vivien stressed: “Most venues or program providers would not be able to accommodate all of these services in one package. The way MMLDC delivers its programs spells the difference.”

Aside from Starbucks, MMLDC's special brand of training can be seen in the sessions designed for Nestlé’s Infant Health & Nutrition (IHN) and AVI Divisions, Hewlett-Packard, Rentokil Initial and with many other prominent corporate clients.   MMLDC welcomes companies and organizations from all over the country to experience the satisfaction of undergoing its distinctive, tailor-made Learning Solutions.
