Online training is delivered by Teachable at https://motiva-training.teachable.com/  MOTIVA Training can design training specific to the needs of accredited conformity assessment bodies, ILAC-recognised accreditation bodies, and Regulatory Authorities on subjects within our scope of expertise.  If desired training is not in the list above, please contact us.  Online training is normally authorised once fees have been paid.

Webinars can be provided by prior arrangement and make use of the same materials used for in-class training course shown above.  Webinars use appropriate webex/webinar software that connects a single room of participants to the training facilitator or connects multiple independent participant stations to the training facilitator. The cost of the webinar must therefore include the cost of connecting the participants to the training facilitator using software that allows Voice-over-Internet (VOIP) and multiple screen manipulation by the facilitator and the participants.  MOTIVA charges a flat fee of $200 per hour of webinar training plus a $100 fee for the provision of the course training binder associated with the training. The amount of time charged is based entirely on the needs of the participants to meet their own learning objectives. In order to discuss needs, please contact us.  As with in-class training, certificates cannot be issued to participants until all course fees have been paid.
