“Partnering with TTA has enabled us to offer customized and effectively timed skill-development training across our entire organization. Their support and collaboration have made this Learning & Development goal easier (and faster) to operationalize and as a bonus, we’ve developed genuine relationships with not just TTA but their facilitators as well.”

Devra S.

Team Lead, Learning & Growth

Grubhub

“We have worked with TTA for a few years now and they are a key partner for contract talent – for example, on one of our contracts, we were looking for an instructional designer but got much more regarding instructional strategy, project management, change management, and design thinking, and this project won a Brandon Hall award. They are very responsive and seek to understand the business and project objectives before offering candidates, and, once placed, ensure the strong partnership with timely check ins. We will certainly continue working with TTA for future needs.”

Chris C.

Director, Sales Development Operational Excellence (AMS)

Align Technology

“As a team of one, I wouldn’t have been able to accomplish nearly as much without TTA! They helped in so many ways, from developing instructor-led courses, conducting onsite facilitation, and transforming a program that was 15 binders of paper into an eLearning series. I appreciate how easy they are to work with and how invested they are in my projects.”

Carolyn W.

Development and Training Manager

Madison Gas & Electric

“TTA listened to our needs, assisted us with identifying other challenges, and provided a detailed scope of work to assist us in resolving the issues we were experiencing. Throughout the information-gathering process and interacting with our employees, TTA identified and provided solutions to the challenges we faced by implementing templates and providing real-world unbiased analysis. Our experience with TTA was exactly what we expected. A high level of professionalism and they did what they said they were going to do. No false promises and no loose ends. Their expertise provided us with value for the expense. Our employees learned a tremendous amount about the learning strategy process.”

Chris S.

Training Director

JATC of Greater Boston

“TTA came to our aide during a time when we were in need. The trainers fulfilled a wide variety of classes for us and were knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. Working with the TTA team was streamlined and easy, and we are grateful for our continued partnership!”

Emma W.

Director of Operations

Centriq

“When I first heard from TTA I was in the stressful process of doubling my team. I asked for an expert in the realm of client coaching experienced in serving vulnerable and diverse populations. The TTA team asked plenty of questions during our meetings to ensure they understood my needs and helped me reach clarity on what I required. TTA connected me with a subject matter expert that was a better fit than I could have imagined. In my first 10 minutes of meeting with TTA, I knew that they were the perfect fit to deliver this critical information to my staff effectively. TTA factored in essential logistics and made communication seamless while fitting the whole packing into the confines of the budget I initially mentioned. The result was an extremely well-crafted and impactful training that left my team and me with enough content to discuss and digest for several weeks. We now meet weekly to practice some of the great coaching methodologies that we learned. I know that our ability to make a long-lasting impact within the refugee and immigrant community has expanded because of the TTA team.”

Luke J.

International Rescue Committee

“Working with TTA is so easy! We were candid and up front with our expectations, the skills needed, and the deliverables we expected – they did not disappoint! There are constant checkpoints to ensure everything is running smoothly and input from our instructional designers is gathered. We want them to feel like part of a team and know they are valued. TTA manages the business aspects and the relationships to ensure they are recognized as people and an important extension of our team.
