EMPOWERING ADULTS THROUGH TRANSITION

LAY-OFFS are TOUGH. We understand! 

 

 

My name is Annie Horovitz-Niccum. Thank you for learning more about us and our passionate dedication to supporting individuals working with the Dislocated Worker Program, CLIMB, and Division of Rehabilitation Services over the past 31+ years.  My layoff in 1994 shaped everything we do.

We understand firsthand what it feels like to face uncertainty, rebuild, and navigate the many transitions adults encounter throughout their careers. That understanding is deeply personal, and it continues to guide our mission today.

Over the years, we have built meaningful, trusted relationships with exceptional counselors and workforce partners. Together, we support individuals through WIOA-approved training programs focused on today’s most in-demand technology, business, and professional skill areas.

At the core of our approach is a strong emphasis on industry-recognized career credentials.

These credentials serve as a bridge—helping individuals translate prior experience into aligned, reputable, standardized best practices.

At Bravura, we build meaningful relationships with our learners. We take the time to understand your background, identify skill gaps, and develop a customized learning plan aligned to your specific goals, experience, and next career step.

Our course content is tailored to you—not pulled from a one-size-fits-all model. This approach moves far beyond the typical one-day, lecture-style training. Instead, you benefit from clear, hands-on, step-by-step instruction that builds practical, real-world skills—skills that extend well beyond the classroom.

In-person locations with weekly classes:

  • Minnetonka (62/494)
  • Louis Park (394/100)

Classroom sessions (in-person and remote) run two hours in length by design to avoid overload of the old traditional one-day; all-day classes.

Each course has a published course duration which is based on traditional one-day; all-day class lengths. However, we are committed to your comprehensive and complete skill development which is why we provide you with the convenience of building a class schedule for a total length of time centered around you and your needs.

We know you want to plan accordingly to complete your training, therefore we ask you to plan for an approximate length of time which varies from student-to-student. See each course/program’s published course duration.

WHY?

Because each student is different. Past experiences and current skill level may allow you to move more quickly through concepts. New features or more complex functionality may require a second look, third look or more individualized instruction.

We want you to build skills and confidence that lasts outside of the classroom.

I PREFER ALL-DAY CLASSES

If you prefer all-day classes, contact Annie Horovitz-Niccum today to create a custom all-day class. Annie@BravuraTraining.com

We’ve been helping adults build skills that last outside of the classroom for over 24 years. Two-hour sessions have been proven to be optimal when adults are learning new technologies. And we are sure you have sat through an all-day; one-day class before and it was draining. We create a valuable learning experience where you leave motivated each day and feel the sense of accomplishment, instead of being stressed out and drained by trying to learn too much information.

We want you to develop skills that will last in a practical, relevant and meaningful fashion.

You’ve heard the saying “if you don’t use it you lose it”. That’s not completely true. If you build skills by working hands-on with the real software with real-world exercises and side-by-side individualized instruction, you are creating an understanding of why and when would I use these functions, as opposed to forced memorization on which buttons to press.

To stand out in today’s job market you must be up-to-date, but more importantly, you have to know you can perform the tasks you are learning.

We are here to help! If you don’t have a device you can schedule training sessions with us in person or by phone.

The choice is yours!! Schedule one day at a time or up to three weeks in advance. Use our convenient 24/7 student portal to schedule your training and manage your training schedule.

The choice is yours!! You’ll love the flexibility Bravura offers. You can schedule as often as you are able to attend. Most Dislocated Worker clients attend 2 – 3 times a week. Some attend every Bravura in-person and remote session we offer each week.

Yes! We offer hassle-free rescheduling options. You have access to your schedule online 24/7 with our student portal. You can make adjustments online by any device with internet access. We ask for at least a 24-hour notice unless it is an emergency.

IMPORTANT! **If we set up a custom schedule just for you, we ask that you provide at least one weeks’ notice for changes.

Yes, you can attend any of our Bravura Training No-Wait Open Enrollment locations (Minnetonka or St. Louis Park).

Yes, you can attend any of our Bravura Training No-Wait Open Enrollment locations (Minnetonka, St. Louis Park, Roseville) and/or remote.

We are 100% dedicated to you and your skill development. We will work with you to make sure you have enough help and time to develop your skills fully. How you feel about your new skills and your abilities to perform those skills is what matters.

As we have stated, one-day; all-day classes leave adults in transition on overload and generally most do not feel confident with new skills. Therefore, in 1994 we created a better way to learn.

Which includes the fact that all technology training should be hands-on with the real software application you are learning, it should be the current version and you should have step-by-step instructions to work with.

You should be able to review and repeat steps at the time you have a question. You should be able to work with a subject matter expert (Bravura’s Certified Instructors) to help you develop a solid understanding. That’s why Bravura’s instructors are up, walking around working with our students side-by-side to make sure that your questions are getting answered and that you have the privacy of asking questions that you may not normally ask in a group-based lecture.

We suggest planning for an approximate time which is based on what would be presented during a traditional industry one-day; all-day class. We know that everyone is different. Different backgrounds, levels of experience and reasons to learn. We know that everyone learns differently and wants to learn skills that will last outside the classroom.

You receive additional hours at no additional cost.

Yes, at least 50% of our students like to practice and/or accelerate training form home. We provide you with Bravura Training Official training manuals and lesson files for at home practice.

Bravura’s Professional Develop 90 Day Learning Passes include a Bravura Training software subscription for the duration of your Learning Pass (90 days).

We offer Saturday training sessions in Roseville or remotely and the option to schedule evening session weekly in Roseville or remotely.

All Bravura courses end in a completion certificate, along with a digital link to update LinkedIn profiles or to share with sponsors of training.

Yes, we are an authorized testing center. Bravura’s students receive full exam preparation and priority exam scheduling in Minnetonka or St. Louis Park.
