MDA Corporation I have used the services of the John Molson Executive Centre over the past 5 years to deliver courses in specialized high-technology environments. What appeals to me about their training programs is that they are not general or standardized courses, but instead, they are tailored to meet the unique needs of our culture and our employees.

Polaris Realty (Canada) Ltd. I have been dealing with the John Molson Executive Centre on numerous occasions since 2009. I was looking for a development program that will refresh my knowledge and enhance my skills in different business topics. My advisor recommended the one-on-one coaching approach as a training solution and so far, I completed courses in Finance, Leadership, and Strategy, to name just a few.

The Executive Centre has helped me not only to improve my skills in those areas but also to learn new practices and tools that I was able to apply to my everyday tasks and responsibilities. I liked the fact that the program was adapted to my specific needs and that the instructors were flexible in customizing their material to my industry. We even worked on real documents and projects from my work environment.

The instructors are all very experienced and work hard to teach you their knowledge in the best way possible. They always use relevant examples to clarify the concepts. The one-on-one coaching format allowed me to receive advice and counselling from each instructor and to benefit from a flexible curriculum.

If I had to describe the John Molson Executive Centre in three words, I would say: flexible, available, and competent.

Overall my experience with the John Molson Executive Centre exceeded my expectations and therefore, I am planning on taking more courses with them in the future.

Rona Inc. RONA first partnered with the John Molson Executive Centre (JMEC) in 2009 to develop a training program targeted to all store managers. The first year, 40 store managers were enrolled in the program and all regional managers were trained as well, in order to have a consistency among hierarchical levels. It was such a success! Today, the program is still offered and so far, we have trained about 200 store managers. In January 2012, 60 other store managers will start the program. 

What’s amazing about working with JMEC is that we really work together. In fact, the mandate became a common project. I felt their support during the entire preparation of the program, and I still feel it today as we update certain course material to reflect the priorities of our company and industry. I always felt that my contribution was very well received. Together, we customize the modules so that they represent RONA’s reality and to make the transfer of knowledge to the workplace easier for the participants.

Given that we really liked our experience with JMEC, it was obvious that we wanted to partner with them again when we had a new mandate for a program targeted to all managers in our support centres. This new program includes 16 days of training and the majority of the modules were assigned to JMEC without any hesitation.  Once again, we worked hand in hand on this project so that the instructors’ material and expertise reflects RONA’s reality; including our unusual structure and our business plan.

The people making the team of the John Molson Executive Centre are true professionals; and the instructors are very much appreciated, whether by our store managers or our managers in the support centres. We wanted development programs at the MBA level that will add value to our people’s work at RONA and I can only say that based on participants’ comments, our goal was reached!

Tewatohnhi'Saktha Economic Development Commission I would like to take this opportunity to thank the JMEC's Team for everything they did to help me secure the 3-Day Management Essentials Seminar. They were very prompt and professional. It was a real pleasure to do business with them and I look forward to more opportunities in the future. Regarding the 3-Day Seminar, I am so pleased to report that I was very satisfied with the course and with the instructor. The material was well organized and Gilles Bélanger was a good facilitator and he connected well with the group.
