The three areas of focus for this stage are Competence, Teamwork, and Leadership. Apprentices learn how to organize and run meetings, how to mentor others, and how to move self-directed teams towards excellence. The goal of the Associate stage is to develop individual competency and experience within the PHAZELINE process.

The reason we stress process so much in our sessions is because employers want people with Technical Competence, people who know HOW to get things done.

Apprentice Track adheres to an effective development process designed to maximize your effectiveness as part of a team.

During the Associate Stage, our apprentices learn the difference between leadership and management - A distinction lost on many in the workplace.
