Evaluation Process

Appleton Greene & Co takes great care to ensure that candidates are evaluated and assessed carefully before being offered a position as an accredited consultant. The application process takes a minimum period of four weeks and incorporates the provision of detailed service information and the requirement for the candidate to complete a detailed application form, incorporating Appleton Greene’s terms and conditions of service. This provides ample time for due consideration. You will need to allow a period of up to 7 business days for your application to be reviewed, evaluated and processed. Appleton Greene is limited in terms of the number of accredited consultant places that are available and applications are only usually considered once annually. The quality of applications that we receive at Appleton Greene is always extremely high and as such we reserve the right to respectfully decline applications, which are not considered to be of the required standard. If your application is ultimately approved, then a formal offer will be forwarded to you and you will then have a further 7 days in which to arrange the payment of your annual service fee. Your statutory rights are not affected.

Business Development

If you have taken the time to review the Appleton Greene web site, then you will have determined that the company is primarily a corporate training provider, specializing in the provision of standard and bespoke programs to client companies, which all focus upon business process improvement.

We have an extensive portfolio of corporate programs available to clients, which are developed and implemented by hundreds of Appleton Greene Certified Learning Providers. The common denominator with all of these programs is that they are all process-orientated. In other words, each program facilitates the implementation of a tangible process, within the client’s organization, enabling them to improve their process in relation to the specific service subject matter of the program. These programs can focus upon any of the following departments: Customer Service; E-business; Finance; Globalization; Human Resources; Information Technology; Legal; Management; Marketing; or Production. To see some examples of these, please select SERVICES from the home page followed by BESPOKE PROGRAMS. Because these programs are process orientated and are implemented over a sustainable period of time, usually 5 years, there is always a significant outsourcing requirement with each program. This is where Accredited Associate, Executive and Senior Consultants are required.

These programs incorporate participation from a wide variety of Appleton Greene Accredited Associate, Executive and Senior Consultants, who each bring their own individual experience relating to the specific business skills and services which they have, the industry sectors they have worked within and the geographical locations where they have commercial knowledge. If additional expert knowledge is required then our Learning Providers have access to hundreds of other Appleton Greene Consultants, with a variety of different industry sector experience and geographical experience, located within most major cities worldwide.

A Certified Learning Provider (CLP) will typically manage a portfolio of 10 client companies with one program, although many learning providers develop and implement multiple programs. There are approximately 750 learning providers now, which means that Appleton Greene can be servicing approximately 7,500 companies at any one time, although there are 500,000+ individual contacts within the Appleton Greene global client network. You can review our client list by selecting CLIENTS from the home page. There are also literally hundreds of testimonials available from clients which are published online and you should take the time to review these. Each individual client company will be outsourcing to a number of Appleton Greene Accredited Consultants, where there are business projects developed as a result of the individual Appleton Greene program, which is being implemented. Indeed approximately 70% of consultancy assignments are generated directly from Certified Learning Providers (CLP), so this proves to be a significant source of new business for Accredited Consultants and Learning Providers are rewarded by receiving an introduction fee amounting to 10% of the total invoice value of any and all consultancy engagements that are generated from their own training programs. The remaining 30% of consultancy assignments are generated by clients themselves.

The type of assignments undertaken by Appleton Greene Consultants ranges from participation in program delivery, including presentations, workshops and meetings, to providing specialist support via email or virtually through the Appleton Greene cloud servers. Indeed the majority of Appleton Greene accredited consultants work virtually from remote locations internationally using Appleton Greene cloud servers. Consultancy assignments can also be generated in relation to specific projects that clients may be planning and implementing, in relation to the Learning Provider’s program. For example, if a Learning Provider was implementing a Business Development program with a consumer product client located in New York, it may be that there is a requirement to develop new business within emerging markets, such as India, China, or South America, in which case Accredited Consultants with Business Development expertise and geographical experience within these locations, could be engaged by the Learning Provider because of their specific geographical knowledge and experience. Similarly, Accredited Consultants may also be engaged because of specific industry experience that they may have and which is subsequently requested by the client. Accredited Consultants may also be engaged because of specific service skills that they may have and which are perceived as necessary by the client.

Appleton Greene Business Development Process

There is no business development activity required on your part whatsoever. Appleton Greene is looking for Consultants, not Sales People.

CONSULTANT PROFILE FORM
Once your application to register as an Accredited Associate, Executive, or Senior Consultant has been processed, Appleton Greene will facilitate the development of your Consultant Profile. The purpose of the Consultant Profile is to provide potential clients and learning providers with an Executive Summary of your education, work experience, industry and geographical experience, service skills and corporate achievements. Clients and Learning Providers can then elect to search for this information by industry sector, or by geographical location, as and when they have a requirement to engage the services of Accredited Consultants.

To see some live examples of Consultant Profiles, please select CONSULTANTS from the home page, followed by one of the client service departments listed. Then select either SEARCH BY INDUSTRY or SEARCH BY LOCATION. The former option features a selection of industry sectors and when you click on the industry sector of your choice, the Accredited Consultants who work within the chosen industry sector will be featured in random order. Similarly, the latter option features a selection of geographical locations (continents, countries and cities) and when you click on the location of your choice, the Accredited Consultants who work within the chosen location will be
