    CMQ/OE Certified Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence
    Very easy, interesting and fruitful
    CMQ-OE is an important course for the managers & directors, in terms of being armed with the required tools & methodology for better management, and eventually towards an Organizational Excellence.I attended this course, last April 12-16, 2020 via online application due to the current pandemic crisis, while the trainer (Mr. Edwin Garro) and LEORON team made the course very easy & interesting for all the participants, the discussions that conducted, the exercises that were provided, and the daily tests, were fruitful & reduced the Learning distance impact.

    We have been working with LEORON for the past two years and will be working with them again this upcoming year. The programs they delivered were fruitful and exciting and our organization has received positive feedback from the participants. What our organization aims to do is to provide at no cost training for all the private sector employees so that they may benefit from our offered programs in Innovation and Professional development. Leoron has helped us achieve this goal. We look forward to continuing this service and wish them the best of luck. Regards,

    Since the partnership was signed between BAE Systems Saudi Development & Training and LEORON in 2017, we have been working together to offer the Saudi market a complete portfolio of training solutions benefiting from the wide and extensive experience of both parties. Recognizing the great success of this partnership, we are looking for further collaborations in the future that will position both companies as one of the leading training providers in Saudi Arabia. We thank the LEORON team for their full cooperation and continuing support, and look forward to further success together in the years to come.
