BUSINESS SOLUTIONS PROFESSIONAL TRAINING

Business Solutions Professional (BSP) Training

“Business Solutions Professional Training is an instrumental part of our Business Services Team’s  success.  BSP training taught the team members to look beyond the basic needs of employers and ask questions differently.  This has led to increased business relationships in the region, and greater customer satisfaction.  I highly recommend you consider Business Solutions Professional training for your team.” 

— Kristen Wenzel, Director of Business Services and Community Relations for Great Lakes Bay Michigan Works! 

Training Details

BSP training consists of three 2-day sessions, for a total of six days. Each session is spaced out to include time to apply the concepts learned to the trainee’s everyday work tasks and significant work projects, and to allow for reflection on the content learned.

To graduate from the BSP cohort training, trainees must attend all six days of the session. Graduates from the program receive a certificate of graduation upon completion of the course but are not yet considered Certified Business Solutions Professionals (CBSPs).

All trainees must graduate from the program before they are considered a Certified BSP candidate and allowed to submit fieldwork projects for certification consideration.
