Last Minute Training 'Sell Off' Makes Learning Affordable

Toronto, Canada, June 14, 2006 --(PR.com)--  Last Minute Training is a forward thinking Toronto-based company that sells popular personal and professional development seminars online, at discount ‘sell-off’ rates. This exciting, new business opens the doors to a whole new world of affordable learning opportunities for individuals, and provides vendors with the opportunity to sell excess seminar space online in a safe, secure environment.

Combining a unique business idea and state-of-the-art technology, Last Minute Training is the only company of its kind in Canada to sell personal and professional development seminars online, at the last minute, at incredible savings. Last Minute Training offers individuals the opportunity to search an extensive online catalogue, find seminars of interest, and purchase them at rates from 30%-60% less than the original cost.

To take advantage of Last Minute Training deals, individuals browse the database, and when they find a seminar that peaks their interest, they register online. Registration is free and can be completed in a few simple steps. As an added benefit, members may also ‘bid’ on Last Minute Training seminars. All bids are submitted online and forwarded to seminar vendors for consideration. Successful bids offer members the potential to save even more money on the cost of seminar registration.

 Last Minute Training members may also create a seminar “wish list” by pre-selecting categories of interest, and receiving email alerts when space in desired seminars becomes available. Using this system, members can receive information on a wide variety of educational offerings that range from computer training, to language classes, and health and wellness seminars.

For vendors, Last Minute Training provides the opportunity to effectively promote, market and sell excess seminar capacity to a robust database of members in a safe, secure online environment. It is the smart way to sell excess inventory and fill every seat in the house. Last Minute Training President Louis Trahan says; “Seminars can be very expensive to develop, deliver and market. To ensure a healthy ROI, vendors need to fill seminars to maximum capacity. That’s where Last Minute Training comes in - we help them sell excess inventory and reach desired participatory levels.”

Last Minute Training also helps vendors increase market visibility. All seminars are listed in a searchable, online directory that is accessible to individuals seeking personal and/or professional development, and HR Managers interested in employee training. Each time a member searches a specific category in the database, designated seminar information appears online, along with the vendor’s logo. This results in increased brand awareness, helping to generate seminar interest and motivate future purchase action.

As an added feature, online member feedback provides vendors with a detailed understanding of the needs and desires of their specific demographic market. This ‘birds-eye view’ provides valuable information that can be used to tailor seminar offerings, adjust seminar costs and location venues, and more accurately reflect the needs of the selected target group.

Last Minute Training is a privately held Ontario corporation that provides the GTA’s premier training suppliers with an avenue to promote and sell excess participant capacity to members who are interested in personal and professional development seminars.
