Maximus' courses

Our courses are designed to provide participants with all-around preparation for dealing with all the work situations required by different positions and jobs.

Courses are usually organized in 28-hour-per-week modules, divided into seven hours of training per day over four days ( with the exception of courses in which, due to problems related to company operations, courses will vary slightly in the total number of hours). This organization is designed to allow users to have free time during the day in order to handle any errands and commitments, as well as to get the maximum attention of the trainees.

All of our courses are professionalized, and to ensure the quality of the output skills, the modules within the courses cannot be used individually.
