About The Portable Group

THE PORTABLE GROUP LIMITED (est 1989) provides training solutions within the areas of Information Technology and Management Development.

Project History

Portable 90 Minutes Training Chunks is a concept that has evolved over time. The idea started with Exploitation Consultancy which involved making the maximum use of specific key Microsoft product areas. It encompassed the creation of a link between business needs and product usage. This involved understanding the business process and mapping direct links from the product into those key initiatives.

Why 90 Minutes?
Research indicates that the average adult can listen with understanding for ninety minutes , and can listen with retention for only twenty minutes source. Using this concept, we have developed a series of short courses focused on specific tasks and features within an application. Each course alternates instructor-led learning and hands-on practice.
