Real Customer Success Stories.
We understand how easy it is to fall into the trap of “If I just had more free time then I’d be able to develop this course”.
But did you know that this is probably the biggest myth that is holding many people back?
Most training professionals, people managers, freelancers, and solo entrepreneurs waste so many hours unnecessarily trying to create training content every day.
And, if you’re following this path then you may already be feeling exhausted and frustrated.
This is not to say that you aren’t working hard, or that time doesn’t help.
Here’s how our customers go from endless unfinished course development to optimizing their time.
All achieved by using our ready to deliver training course material in their business.
By choosing one simple step - switching from creating all your training content from scratch to downloading everything you need instantly - everything will change for the better.
If our customers below are doing this every day, so can you.
If They Can Do It, So Can You!

“Oak continually attends to the needs of various businesses and either creates or adjusts training modules on various topics to be self-contained, practical, and easy to use. And they stand behind every product with personal service.” – Rey Carr.
International Association of Teamwork Facilitators
“I’ve developed an alliance with Oak — a company that has developed a wide assortment of training “modules” that you can download right now. When you download a module, you own it forever and have permission to edit it, customize it (logos, etc.), and deliver it as many times as you like. You will receive a Word document, PDF, PowerPoint, and comprehensive participant manual; your satisfaction or money back will be guaranteed. The modules are designed for trainers, coaches, and consultants looking to increase their clients' range of products and services. Oak content is also ideal for managers and employees looking to extend their knowledge of organizational, management, and employee titles.” – Tom Heck, President

“Time is money — we all know that. As coaches, our billable time is worth much money, but program development time is not. For a once-off cost per training pack, you’ve saved coaches countless hours of program development time. Plus, because of the high quality of your materials, you make us look good!
What you are offering for coaches is remarkable. Thank you! Thanks, also, for letting us customize the programs with our logos, taglines, etc. Your spirit of generosity is greatly appreciated.
Well done. You’ve put a lot of work into this, and I am thrilled to see the result. All the Best.” – Sylva K. Leduc, MEd (Psychology), MPEC Master Personal & Executive Coach.
“As someone involved in training for over twenty years, I’ve never known a resource as consistently valuable as Oak.
I’m always amazed at their willingness to provide purchasers with their complete range of presentations, regular updates, and new training packages at no additional cost. That makes my purchase increasingly valuable. Their speed in responding to questions is phenomenal.
One of the sessions I often provide is a Training the Trainers workshop. The first resource I encourage people to purchase is the Library of Resources from Oak. These packages have made my job infinitely more manageable, and I recommend them to anyone looking for the highest quality training materials.” – Jeffrey L. Buller, Senior Partner.
