Training Discounts

A variety of discounts to fit your situation.

Request your discount on the session (a class on date/time with a trainer) you want. If more than one discount applies explain in your comments.

You can pay in up to 12 installments by choosing Splitit at checkout.

For Grow-Lean Alumni, log in or use your account email when registering, and receive an automatic discount. If you also qualify for another discount, request it, and, if your email matches, we know you are an alumni.

If you have a Visa or Mastercard credit card you can pay in up to 12 monthly installments. There are no fees or interest if you pay on time! Your available credit must be enough to cover the full cost and there is a hold on your credit card for the amount that you have not paid.

For example, if your final fee is $1,000 and you chose 10 installments:

  • You would pay $100 today and have a $900 hold placed on your credit card.
  • The following month your credit card would be charged another $100 and the hold would be reduced to $800.
  • Each month you pay $100 and each month the hold is reduced by $100.

If you are not familiar with the term "hold" this is similar to what hotels do when you check in, to cover extra expenses you may incur including the mini bar.

The benefit to you is that you do not pay any interest or fees if all payments are on time.

Avoid
Dangerous Trainers

Theory without Experience

Many trainers have limited amounts of actual experience. They deliver vague content lacking depth. Answers may seem satisfying during the session but you will find little practical application in the workplace.

Choose
Grow-Lean

Understanding with Experience

Your Grow-Lean trainer comprehends the theory and has applied it in various situations, understanding applicability based on context. As a result, you are prepared to interview and/or execute with excellence.

Avoid
Dangerous Trainers

Experience without Understanding

Some trainers emphasize practical experience without grasping the underlying theory as they haven't invested the effort to understand the conceptual foundations. As a result you don't gain the context to help you apply the right approach given your situation.

Quality Guarantee

Not all trainings are the same. You can have a lot of fun in a large training with lots of videos, and you may even rate it a 5-Star event, but you learn much more in a smaller group with many hands on exercises.
Choose Grow-Lean

100% live session, small class size (have your voice heard), numerous exercises, delivered by an experienced trainer, real testimonials, with no surprise fees or costs.

Avoid Low Quality Training

Numerous videos, large class size (be jammed in with 50 others), trainer doing lots of talking, inexperienced trainer, fake testimonials, with extra costs and surprise fees.
