OUR PHILOSOPHY
ENGAGING ENABLING EMPOWERING ENRICHING EXPERIENCES
At Minerva Academy, we believe in an unequivocal commitment to programmes and courses which, deliver:
Excellence
Quality
High-Impact
Added Value
Personalised and Tailored Learning
At Minerva Academy we believe that our training, learning and development philosophy should be focused on one thing and one thing only; supporting and facilitating both organisations and individuals to achieve their fullest potential.
We blend a rigorous and robust combination of leading-edge professional knowledge, skills, attributes, and behaviours, within a competency, results, and outcomes focused framework.
Our objective is to provide professionals at all organisational levels with the best international practice knowledge, skills, attributes, and behaviours to lead and drive excellence, innovation, transformation and SMARTER* paradigms; dive higher level and enhanced performance and productivity; and respond successfully to strategic, tactical, and operational opportunities, threats, and challenges.
Complementing our philosophy is a methodological and pedagogic approach which deploys a systematic portfolio of methodologies, instruments, and materials, which are learner centric, considerate of individual and cultural learning styles, interactive and experiential.
Blending the traditional and modern, and adapted to local operational environments, our programs and courses are designed to consolidate, recycle, and build upon existing professional knowledge and skills; develop new knowledge and skills; support scaffolded and sustainable professional and personal development, within a constructive, supportive, and professional environment which seeks to add significant value to clients’ experiences.
A key pillar of this portfolio is the use of scenario and task-based learning and case studies.
On our short, intensive programmes and courses especially, we like to privilege a programmatic, practical, real world organisational and business focus; bring to our clients the extensive, expertise and experience which our outstanding international pool of speakers, trainers, facilitators, and consultants possess.
Across all our programmes and courses, we also seek to provide not just best international practice, but drive genuine, original, thought leadership.
Perhaps above all, our programmes and courses are specifically designed to allow participants the time and environment to explore and discuss ideas, knowledge, and practice with their peers; as well as to question, challenge and reflect.
