How do you prefer to learn?

Not everyone learns the same way nor can all subjects be taught in the same manner.

While many people focus on university education there are others who are interested in the trades. While some subjects are taught in a lecture hall, others required a hands on approach. Some require both.

Once formal education is complete the learning has only just begun as experience is the other side of the coin.

Moving on to learing environments, while classrooms, labs, and tradeshops are common, so has become online courses, virtual classrooms, and books including digital and audio.

Forward Looking Solutions is combining formal education and experience in accounting, human resources, engineering, and emergency services to provide clients with a unique approach to problem solving. Although we are certainly available for in-person training both in the class and remote, we are also providing online courses, books, and guides. We are excited to announce we are currently in the process of converting our current material into audiobooks the first of which should be complete by the end of the month.

What subjects would you like to see us address, and what is your prefered format for learning?

There is still room for Dinosaurs!

My name is Dan Elliot, and I am a Professional Accountant with over twenty years of front-line experience in administrative, mechanical and emergency services environments.

Just in Time

Just in Time “Just put the juice on the table, and please bring the liquor over here Juan.” “Sí señor.” Isaac has come in early, because this is the day he receives his inventory. “You didn’t have Gin on your list Mr. Isaac, I brought some just in case.” “That’s fine Juan, I will use it eventually.” The two men finish unloading the supplies, then Juan heads for the door. “Hasta luego Señor Isaac.” During the past two years, Isaac has been able to get a fairly good idea of what sells, and how often. He also knows that some products are often backordered depending on the season, so he makes sure he adjusts his ordering accordingly, and allows enough lead time. If he wants to compete with the other bars, he certainly cannot be running out of product. “Good Morning Isaac!” “Carter! I’m surprised to see you up so early. Where are the others?” Isaac does not normally see Carter until much later in the day, and always with his friends. “I had to take it easy last night...
