providing a platform dedicated to your closed-door corporate learning needs

CorporateConnect Programme

CorporateConnect is Alvin’s flagship legal training programme for corporates. The programme allows corporates like you to send your employees to a private, closed training that is customised exclusively to your organisation’s needs.

Alvin believes that corporate legal training is essential for organisations to navigate the web of laws and regulations that govern their operations. By providing a platform for your employees to be equipped with a real understanding of legal principles, you can mitigate risks, ensure compliance, and foster a culture of ethical behavior. Effective training programs also help enhance decision-making processes and prevent legal disputes. In an increasingly litigious environment, investing in corporate legal training is not only a strategic necessity but also a proactive measure to protect the future of your business.

Alvin’s approach

1. he identifies

The issues and risks on the legal topic vis-a-vis your business. He chats with you to understand your priorities, pain points and hits-and-misses. As appropriate, he looks at your key documentation and processes.
He injects his findings at Step 2.
2. he designs

Training materials that infuse his findings from Step 1. He ensures that the training content is thoughtfully customised to align with your specific business activities and is relevant to your employees' day-to-day.
These make learning 'sticky' and effective.
3. he trains

Your employees, whether it is at the business line, managerial line, or top executive levels. He is adept at creating a safe space for learning, as well as for encouraging group discourse to take place.
These make trainings productive.
