The science of learning

RedTeam’s proprietary curriculum is tightly aligned with Blenheim Chalcot’s Career Development Framework (CDF), which details the competencies required to build successful businesses. In this vein, the RedTeam curriculum has a strong emphasis on: strategic and operational excellence; achieving product market fit; communication and leadership; and scaling up. RedTeam also delivers functionally-specific, technical training with an emphasis on harnessing cutting-edge technologies.  

We believe that learning is a social endeavor. We learn better with our colleagues who may be facing similar challenges, because everyone has both something to teach, and something to learn. For this reason, we invest heavily in the power of synchronous, in-person learning experiences. In parallel, RedTeam pioneers GenAI powered solutions to deliver personalised learning in the flow of work, to all of its learners, at the point of need.
