Processes, innovations and new technology do not deliver projects absent the most important element -- people.

We equip and empower people and organizations to achieve their promise in 3 ways:

  1. TAPUniversity, established in 2005. Under the leadership of Dr. Laura Whitwer, we equip professionals through our education delivery in a variety of ways: seminars, week long classes, online learning, certification classes.   Since its rollout in October of 2005, 750 professionals have leveraged www.tapuniversity.com for their learning. We deliver certification preparation curriculum for PMP (project management professional), CISA (certified information systems auditor), Six Sigma and CBAP (certified business analyst).  We also align with colleges and universities such as Southeast Community College, Southern Illinois at Edwardsville, &  St Louis University for executive
    and management education.
     

  2. TAPSolutions, established in 2007.
    Under the leadership of David Kohrell, we equip organizations to deliver at a high level from within our consulting centers of expertise:
    * Virtual Team Effectiveness Assessments
    * Learning Management Systems architecture & planning

    * Project Management & Portfolio Management Assessment (OPM3)
    * MS Project Server 2003/07 planning, configuration & training

    * CobiT 4.1 Assessment and Planning.
     

  3. TAPStaffing, established in 2007
