Why choose 8Pillars?

We can even tailor a course to suit your organisation or groups’ needs.
8Pillars is passionate about providing Education knowledge, values and skills to anyone who wants to learn. There is a lot of debate on the difference between Education and Learning, we have taken the positive view that Learning is the action of the person participating in a course, reading an article, blog or news item, this is cognitive learning actions.
At its heart, Learning is the process of the Learner acquiring new knowledge, skills and attitudes. Thus, 8Pillars provides the mechanism, through Education, for Learners to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes.
“Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today”
— Malcolm X

In a rapidly changing working environment our research indicates that these areas are critical now and will be for the future. For example, there are a lot of courses on Project Management however we know that organisations want to be agile, so we have focused on Agile courses that are built on solid foundations, are suited to the regulatory and legislative requirements of organisations, are structured but can be tailored to different working environments. We know that every organisation is different however by learning from the right courses you will have the skills to adapt your knowledge to any type of organisation and any sized project.
The structure of organisations is also changing, gone are the days where change stemmed from IT driving out technological changes. To stay competitive now everyone in the business needs to be innovative and aware of their customer’s needs. Digital Marketing, Sales and Social Media are key drivers of change and to stay ahead these areas will only increase as organisations continually implement Digital Transformation projects and enhance on the end-to-end customer experience. Society is hungry for efficient and effective ways to consume goods and services, the timeframe from Innovators, to Early Adoption to Early Majority is speeding up and most of the laggards are now online or using smartphones. Those on the front line, particularly those in marketing and sales are aware of this and know that to remain ahead you need to be digitally savvy. Therefore we have invested in the Digital Marketing Institutes courses that are backed by the Industry Advisory Council who are addressing the global digital skills shortage. With experts from Facebook, Microsoft, LinkedIn, Twitter and Google.
We also play to our strengths, we don’t want to deliver courses that don’t align to our organisations skillsets nor do we deliver courses that we believe do not provide value to our candidates. We want to see our candidates succeed and grow in their chosen fields of expertise and be leaders and trailblazers of the future!
