The Etiquette School of Dana Point provides currently researched and contemporary etiquette and dining training, presented in the most professional manner. Seminars and briefings offer universally recognized and accepted personal behavior models to groups or individuals. The programs utilize comprehensive, illustrated workbooks, inter-active activities and support material. It is the goal of The Etiquette School to foster personal qualities of civility, adaptability, persuasiveness, leadership and excellence in the business and social arenas.
In today's increasingly global society, technical knowledge is no longer enough to ensure success. Sophistication is more and more the catchword. Given a choice between two equally talented individuals, corporations from America and elsewhere will choose the candidate with the greater interpersonal skills to represent it. The Etiquette School understands this, and our training programs are appropriately focused to help promote the required sophistication and self-awareness needed for success in today's corporate environment.
We offer a full range of individually designed programs to suit your needs.
Corporate
The mission of our corporate training seminars is to enhance the interpersonal skills and professional presence of each participant, and to develop a competitive edge using up-to-the-minute and correct information. The seminars are tailored to reflect the content, logistics and needs of participants.
