Testimonials
“This class has been super useful and helped me to navigate my first couple of months as a career counselor successfully. I will definitely complete the survey and recommend you and Horizon Point Consulting to our future career counseling hires.”
“Working with Horizon Point Consulting was excellent! From registration to completion of the course, they were very flexible and provided clear communication on what was expected each week. The small class size for the “Using Assessments in Career Development” course provided a lot of opportunities to collaborate with other professionals. After completing this course, I feel that I have a better understanding of how to leverage career assessments with the students I work with. In addition, it also introduced me to some new assessments that I had not heard of before. With this new information, I have already been able to make a large impact with my students while they are in the discovery phase of their job search using these assessments. Thank you again for facilitating this course and I look forward to the next opportunity to work with Horizon Point Consulting.”
“Horizon Point is an ideal partner for my professional development. I have completed several programs with them, including an assessment training for my GCDF recertification. I appreciated the flexibility, format, and excellent content.”
“Thank you again for your patience and flexibility during this crazy time. And I also wanted to thank you for being a great facilitator of this class! I found it immensely eye-opening and relevant to my work, and I know my colleagues did too. We had all heard great things about Horizon Point Consulting, but you somehow managed to exceed our expectations! I will definitely be recommending this program in the future.”
“Thank you for leading the class these past couple of months. I found you to be knowledgeable, flexible, informative, and resourceful. I could have taken the NCDA course with any number of providers, and I am so glad that I went with Horizon Point. I know that we will continue to be in touch and probably work together again.”
“Horizon Point was a joy to work with from the first email! Their ability to be flexible to our needs was absolutely paramount throughout the scheduling and training. Not only did their team deliver a unique and in person ‘crash course’ type training, but everything was customized for our needs.
From rising up to our existing skill level as career advisors with varied levels of experience already working in the field, to customization of our training for our unique population of working, distance learning adults, the SNHU Team knew that our needs were being met by selecting Horizon Point. We were engaged, and we developed new skills as opposed to just going over existing ones. Most importantly, we are able to better serve our students’ success as a result of working with Horizon Point.”
“The information and career education received better equipped me as a counselor to prepare my students for making or considering career options.”
“I believe that my career development facilitator training impressed them and made me stand out as a candidate so I wanted to thank you for providing such a great program.”
