Online and Virtual Training
To meet our clients' social distancing needs, Office Productivity Training offers both online and virtual training options.
Microsoft Office Training
Our instructor-led classes are hands-on and interactive. Whether we are teaching software basics or job-specific tasks, OPT is dedicated to teaching skills your employees can immediately apply back on the job.
Business Skills Training
Need help developing your employees' soft skills? OPT now offers Business and Leadership skills courses that can be customized to fit your needs and budget.
Power Hours
Power Hours are one-hour training sessions focused on improving specific job-related tasks that you perform every day.
Consulting Services
Do you have one employee that needs help working on a file or project? Let us help. One of our partners can meet with individuals on an hourly basis to assist in creating files, understanding inherited files and projects, or providing tips and tricks towards becoming more productive.
Instructional Design
Our partners both have over twenty years of experience in workforce instruction and design. Using assessment tools, we can identify your employees' current skills, knowledge, and learning gaps before training even begins. Once we have analyzed your assessments, we can develop a training program using the right approach, tools, and topics to close the learning gap and increase productivity.
About Us
Who We Are
Office Productivity Training was started by Debra Lassman and Gina Niebrugge in July 2017. Previously both women worked as computer training instructors and program development specialists for the Selsius Corporate and Career Training business development center at Southwestern Illinois College. The Selsius department at SWIC was phased out in the summer of 2017 due to the State of Illinois budget crisis. Seeing an opportunity to continue providing training assistance to area organizations, Lassman and Niebrugge joined forces to form Office Productivity Training (OPT).
