What is CPN?

CPN is a national certification training that teaches the ‘best of the best’ in negotiation.

CPN teaches the ‘must have’ skills and techniques to be a professional negotiator.

CPN teaches real negotiation, not just passive communication.

CPN is delivered in an environment that is engaging, fun, and challenging.

CPN alumni say it’s one of the best things they’ve ever done- professionally and personally.

At CPN training you will be engaged from the minute you walk in the room. There are discussion sessions, group breakouts, role plays, and one on one interaction. It’s all skill based, purpose driven and designed and delivered to give maximum impact in a brief amount of time.

What’s different about CPN Training?

CPN isn’t a lecture or a seminar; it’s a workshop.  The content is delivered in a way that you will hear it, see it and then you will do it.  CPN uses intentional delivery methods because they work to teach adults quickly and effectively.

CPN covers the core principals and best practices in negotiation today.  CPN topics were selected not because they sound good, but because they work.

CPN is practical.  The content is designed to fit in your world as a professional and it is taught in a way that you can use it the next day.
