Doing the Executive Basics apprenticeship brought about fantastic results. You get to drill many scenarios where you are the executive in charge, and you have to make things go right when they are definitely going wrong. You get to actually think with what you learned in the Executive Basics course, ensuring that you can use the tools perfectly. Once you get to the point where you’re drilling the scenarios perfectly, you really see the difference between doing it with the executive basics tools versus doing it without those tools. It is quite a significant difference indeed.

The final part of this apprenticeship dealt with me being in charge of a small group operation that lasts from 5-10 hours. I had to manage three people and get them to get the work done. It was a non-trivial test of my skill as an executive. Not having managed a structured operation like this before made me very excited. I was eager to apply all of the tools that I had garnered in my earlier courses here at Hubbard College of Administration. Specifically, my task was to get 70 surveys of the correct public for a construction company done within a 5-10 hour timeframe. My team and I managed to get all of them done in just over 5 hours. I was able to make the operation run smoothly while simultaneously keeping my juniors interested in getting all of the surveys done within our time allotment. As a result of our success, I feel completely able and competent as an executive, and I feel that I can handle even larger projects without a sweat.

I always asked myself why there were so many salesmen that couldn’t sell or why there were so many salesmen that have this superficial interest in you because deep inside they are thinking of something else? At least a couple of times, I’ve encountered some salesman in such a bad mood that I felt sad about it. While doing this apprenticeship, I realized that it really is hard, if not impossible, to sell a product that you have no interest in. If all these salesmen had at least some minimal interest in what they were selling, their jobs would be so much easier.

From the very first moment my apprenticeship supervisor told me about Vibrant Life as a site for my sales apprenticeship, I was very interested. I like all subjects about nutrition and exercising. So I had good affinity with the product. The vitamins and creams were a great product for me to sell, because I knew that by selling them I was in some way helping the buyers to improve their health.

So I personally think that these two ingredients are basic to getting a sale: 1) interest or affinity in the product you are selling and 2) interest in the person that you are selling the product to. This is applicable to anything that you want to sell.

I am Damiano Shehu, an Albanian student from Tirana on the Associate Degree Program at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA.  I recently finished the Marketing and Public Relations Surveys Apprenticeship.

I had a great time during this apprenticeship. I learned that surveys are not only fun but very useful for a business too. By applying the data I learned on the Marketing and Public Relations Surveys Course, I was able to get a great result. I got the buttons, which are the answers that were given the most number of times to each survey question. In addition, I was able to determine the positioning, which is the placement of the product in somebody’s life or mind and in relation to other products, based on the buttons.

When you survey people you get various types of responses. What conventional survey takers usually look for is a yes or no type of question. These types of questions do not bring about an emotional response. It is extremely crucial to be able to get an emotional response.  Once you have an emotional response from your survey question, you can use that answer in your promotion.

I think that this apprenticeship was great, and I would suggest it for anyone that works in promotion and marketing.

I liked the How to Evaluate and Predict Human Behavior Course very much. Now, I know how to spot other people’s emotional tone. This is actually very important. I don’t want someone who has low emotional tone to work with me. Why? I want to be with happy people. When working with people who have low emotional tone, they bring me down, or maybe I need to work extra hard just to keep my emotional tone high enough.

Looking back to my past, to what I did and to what other people did, I now know why I did what I did and why they did whatever they did. I know the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation, and it predicts specific correlations between emotional tone and action or behavior. It’s really amazing!!

By knowing this data, not only can I evaluate and predict the behavior of others, but I can also know based on my emotional tone what my behavior is, even when I don’t want to admit it. Finally, itís not hard to communicate with people, as long as, you know their emotional tone.

I completed Policy course and I realized that no matter how small an activity is, there must be a BASIC PURPOSE. You keep your BASIC PURPOSE and you are moving toward your GOAL. Because the BASIC PURPOSE is also somewhere you are trying to achieve.  I can say that someone works with BASIC PURPOSE and make sure he always goes with it, then he must see the result – the whole activity will flourish and go into affluence.

So, how to make the above happen? There must be something that can help. It’s policy! Policy is a rule or procedure or guidance which permits the BASIC PURPOSE to succeed.

Some business fail, maybe the only reason is that nobody in the office follows the policy or they don’t even know they have policy or even they donít have any policy. Then, when they have any situation, no matter how small it is, they just have no clue of handling it and they wind up with a collapsed company.

I believe nobody want to reach failure and everyone wants to win. Now you have technique – Policy. Apply it and forward your BASIC PURPOSE. Now you know your ideal scene is waiting for you and your life will be successful.

During the course of the Formulas for Business Success and Management by Statistics apprenticeship, you make huge positive changes in your life and the life of others. You figure out exactly what you are producing and what operating state that activity is in. You actually set yourself a production assignment (quota) on each of your products and then list out all the steps necessary to make that quota a reality (targets). While you are doing this, you are applying the formula which corresponds to the operating state the activity is in which will result in your production moving up into a new realm as measured by your statistic, which is a number or amount compared to an earlier number or amount of the same thing, for that product.

As a result of this apprenticeship, I achieved certainty and confidence in my ability to scale graphs correctly as well as determine the correct length of time in which to manage production. Also I could easily tell what operating state my production activity was in and, as a result of that, apply the precise condition formula indicated to improve the situation.

As one of the tasks in the apprenticeship, I had to look at all the key things I was producing in my life, then apply what I had learned on the two courses mentioned above for three weeks in order to increase the production of those key things. My application consisted of keeping graphs, applying condition formulas, implementing quotas and targeting for each of the main products in my life. As a result, I achieved increases in all of my statistics. I could see that through intensive use of this data I can keep my statistics increasing and, should they fall, remedy the situation right away. I have to say that I have never been so productive before in my life, and it was all due to applying this data. It has amazing value and I will surely keep using it because after all Iím striving for growth, not non-existence.

The best part of this apprenticeship was helping an executive of a small business increase her sales. She had been having trouble keeping her sales in a viable range and just couldnít seem to change the situation. I went to her business and helped her determine which operating state her production was in based on her statistic. Next, I helped her plan out the exact steps she was going to take to raise her production (targeting) as would be measured by an improved statistic.

While helping improve the small business ownerís production, I began to see how different it is to help another raise her statistic in comparison to my own. With my own personal statistics, it was a lot easier just to discipline myself and make all of my targets, but with someone else I really had to make sure that they got her targets done in order to raise her statistic. After a couple weeks, her stat had gone up, and she was very happy that I had shown her these tools. Iíve kept in touch with her and her sales are still up in comparison to before. I now feel totally confident that I can help anyone increase their production as measured by increased statistics through the management tools of managing by statistics and formulas for business success!

I am Mary Beth Shields and American student taking individual courses at the Hubbard College of Administration (HCA), Los Angeles, CA. I just completed the Ethics for Business Survival course.

I took this course with little to no understanding of ethics (that is, how they apply to an individual or how they apply in a business). Not only do I have a clearer understanding, I know how to handle situations on every level. I can act ethically, morally and know when and why to apply justice.

The supervisors were all patient, understanding and extremely helpful. They listened to what I had to say and directed me to the information. I learned techniques for demonstration that really helped in understanding concepts. This was an excellent course and I recommend it to business professionals and individuals.

I did my Marketing Apprenticeship at Fresh Aire Duct Cleaning.

This was such a fun apprenticeship that I enjoyed so much and I learned a lot about the subject of Marketing. Now I can promote and sell anything to the WORLD!!

First of all I needed to know about the product very well in order to sell it or promote it. If you don’t know about your product very well you can’t make any promo piece for it. You can’t let the other people know about it. You can’t sell it. Before I started this apprenticeship I wasn’t aware about the air duct cleaning industry at all. So I needed to learn about it from the beginning and it was very interesting.

I went to the actual job site and observe the air duct cleaning service. I even went up to the attic with one of the employees and took some pictures of the employee who was cleaning the main air duct system with his tools. Now I know the air duct cleaning procedure very well. It was such a valuable experience for me.

Through this apprenticeship I realized something pretty cool. With the tech I learned from the Marketing course, I can promote anything and everything if I want to! I can get the result very easily, without having any problem. I can create want for any kind of product, from anybody! The tech is very simple and amazing.

I designed a promo piece based on the survey result and the owner of the company liked it very much. They printed 10,000 copies of it for their promo campaign. One of the sales ladies started using my survey result when she was closing the sale over the phone. After a week, she achieved the highest statistics for weekly GI of home air duct cleaning!

I really enjoyed this apprenticeship. Even though I’m an apprentice, it was very nice to see the humongous effect I created on the actual business, using my newly attained Marketing abilities. This increased my confidence concerning my knowledge. If you look at the world you will see a lot of misunderstood technology, promo pieces and PR campaigns. I’m sure that my products are more effective than some current successful marketing companies and will continue to improve my skills in the years to come!

This course, How to Evaluate and Predict Human Behavior has data that is very important for every manager. After finishing it, one can predict how people will act under certain situations, whether a person is being truthful with you or whether a person is the ideal employee for you and much more.

This course contains a total of ten lectures on the subject of human evaluation. One learns about the main emotional tonespeople go through and what to expect at each of those levels. One finds out why there are people who get stuck at an emotional tone and why over time people start to go lower in emotional tones. Also one learns about how there are eight ways that man is trying to survive; these are called the Dynamics of Existence. When a person makes a decision that positively affects the majority of the dynamics he will be happier. This is called an optimum solution. One also learns what three factors determine an individual’s personality. The last tape is about something very important; it covers the data about how to increase fondness (Affinity), level of agreement (Reality) and communication (Communication) between people. These three things are actually interdependent and if one is lessened then the other two are as well.  For example, if there is someone you just couldn’t seem to agree with, you would be less likely to speak with that individual and your fondness for him would lower as well. Same way in reverse, if one can agree with someone easily one is more inclined to talk to that person and would enjoy his presence.

Emotional tone has a lot to do with Affinity, Reality and Communication. For instance, people who are angry won’t agree with cheerful people and people in grief won’t agree with people in fear. However, people who are in fear will agree with others in fear and the same goes for people in anger. To learn more about why this is so, I suggest you get started on the course.

I had a lot of fun doing this course and learned a lot of information that I didn’t have before. All of this data has helped me in my relations with others and choosing the right people to be around. Itís given me tools to predict whether someone is responsible, understands easily, or gets sick easily. If managers had this data, they would have the ability to choose employees that would help their business survive and prosper. They could base their sales techniques so as to persuade any individual to buy their product(s) or service(s). They would know exactly how to improve their relationship with clients, personnel and the general public.  In summary, the tools included in the ìHow to Evaluate and Predict Human Behaviorî course are priceless and have been sought after for many years. I encourage you to take advantage of this fine opportunity and get yourself trained in using these Administrative techniques as soon as possible.

Where to begin?  How to Get Along with Others is my first apprenticeship. At first I was apprehensive about doing an apprenticeship, but was pleasantly surprised with how it turned out. Although the courses are great and awesome, it’s the apprenticeships that provide the proof that what one is learning actually works.  The experience of the apprenticeships releases any and all doubt about the workability of what you are studying. That type of validation is what a student like me needs to continue studying and learning. I am now more eager to go through courses and as a byproduct of this increasing confidence in the applicability of what I learn, I am more curious and interested in what I’m being asked to study. The courses offered here are real business, the kind of business insights and tools that I don’t think I would learn anywhere else.
