Corporate Training Solutions

What Corporate Training Solutions does

Corporate Training Solutions, Inc. is a privately held professional services firm headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, that delivers career transition services, executive coaching, and training & development programs to corporate clients. The company operates a direct enterprise field-sales model and delivers services on-site at client locations, distinguishing itself from remote or self-serve alternatives. Its service portfolio rests on three pillars: outplacement assistance delivered through a national affiliate network, individual and group executive coaching engagements, and structured training programs covering roughly 40+ workshop topics in soft skills and leadership development. Named clients span beverage (Coca-Cola), energy (Southern Company), nonprofit (Atlanta Union Mission), legal (Chamberlin Edmonds), hospitality/entertainment (Zoo Atlanta), and financial services (OFC Capital).

The firm's underlying methodology is built on licensed psychometric instruments — Hogan Assessments, the Strong Interest Inventory, and the Change Style Group indicator — which are used to generate individualized development plans for executives and managers. Programs are priced and delivered on a project or retainer basis to corporate clients; there is no software-licensing or subscription component. The firm cites a 95% outplacement success rate as an outcome metric.

The business model is project- and retainer-based professional services revenue with no disclosed subscription, transaction, or platform-licensing component. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales into HR, talent management, and L&D buyers at mid-to-large organizations, with on-site delivery at client locations. Geographic reach is anchored in the Atlanta metro with national extension through the career-transition affiliate network. The firm is privately held with no venture funding signals in the input.
