About Agora Insights

Exceptional training for exceptional value resulting in exceptional outcomes

Before founding Agora Insights in 2017, I spent 20 years working within several industries, both public and private sectors. The need for business analyst and business architect training was a recurring theme throughout this time. Because of my experience, peers would often come to me requesting I assist them with training, mentoring, and support. It was clear there was a significant and growing need for training courses that would allow business analysis and architecture professionals to reach their goals using engaging, relevant, and informative course structures. 

That’s when the inspiration for Agora Insights formed. I wanted to give business professionals a platform to learn, grow their careers, and get the insights and support they need to be successful. I saw an opportunity to apply my real-world experience with responding to learners’ needs and supporting them throughout the learning journey.

When building the foundations of Agora Insights' offerings, I focused on a few key elements that would maximise the value of the training and help learners set their goals and reach them. Those elements included:

Creating engaging content that is appropriately paced to keep motivation high and learners on track

Delivering training solutions that are specific and geared to the goals of the learner

Supporting different learning styles by utilising a diverse collection of training materials and methods

Agora Insights offers customised services to a niche market. The role of business analysts and architects is fundamentally to empower a business to deliver strategy, initiatives, and digital enhancement. Unfortunately, these critical roles are often left unsupported, and this is where we step in. Our current offerings include certification-based online training, coaching and mentoring, and bespoke training solutions. We pride ourselves on our excellent service and support to our learners and customers.

Since our inception, we’re delighted to have served individuals and businesses across 81 countries. We offer the kind of highly individualised, structured training that can make all the difference in learners reaching their goals. Most importantly, we are committed to supporting our learners at every step of their journey while providing the warm, inclusive welcome unique to New Zealand. 

We are happy to look at your specific training needs, be they large or small, to maximise your individual, or team’s potential. Whether you’re looking to fill some knowledge gaps, create a Centre-of-Excellence, or obtain support on your digital transformation programme, our targeted training solutions can help.

Happy learning, everyone!
