Practical Training Solutions

What Practical Training Solutions does

Practical Training Solutions is a privately-held learning solutions provider founded in 2005 and operating under the OMNEAN brand from Phoenix, Arizona. The company delivers accredited continuing education and compliance training courses to healthcare and social services professionals — particularly direct support professionals, behavioral health workers, and developmental medicine practitioners — via a web-based platform that supports In-Person, Online, Blended, and Live Virtual delivery formats. It holds NADSP (National Alliance for Direct Support Professionals) Accredited Education Provider status, and its catalog is explicitly mapped to specific state regulatory frameworks, notably AHCCCS CEUs for Arizona and COMAR requirements for Maryland.

The technology stack is a self-service e-commerce and learning management platform featuring a course catalog with star ratings, review counts, enrollment counts, and delivery mode indicators, alongside shopping cart, account login, and an agency signup workflow for partner organizations. The platform integrates customer support through Zendesk and a free content channel on YouTube. Course content is organized around compliance and emerging best practice themes — including Article 9 (in-person), Peaceful Practices, CPR/AED and First Aid, P.R.O.U.D prevention and support, and rights-based practice training — with 30,000+ cumulative enrollments reported on the flagship Article 9 course and roughly 4,975+ reviews across the catalog.

The business model is unit-based one-time course sales priced at $35-$65 per course, with CEU credits bundled in (AHCCCS CEUs ranging from 2 to 4 units per course). Go-to-market is primarily self-serve product-led growth via the website storefront, supplemented by free content marketing on YouTube, Zendesk self-service, and an agency partnership program. The company serves a single primary vertical — healthcare and social services — with no named enterprise customers and no disclosed ownership, funding, or revenue figures.

Broad incumbents

• Relias: Large healthcare and human-services workforce training platform serving hospitals, behavioral health, and IDD providers with CE/CME courses.
