Throughout the year, TNCPE provides training opportunities to organizations that want to improve processes and results. All of these programs are either free or available at low cost and open to the public. Organizations interested in applying to TNCPE's evaluation and feedback program can attend one of TNCPE's application workshops. Other workshops that focus on the Criteria and performance improvement methods are held in conjunction with the annual Excellence in Tennessee Conference. When an organization wins an Excellence Award, TNCPE's highest honor, it offers a series of best practice tours. For example, the 2006 Excellence Award Winner, Pals' Sudden Service, hosted more than 150 individuals during three best practice tours in 2007. Participants learned about Pal's business approach, toured Pal's facilities and took home ideas for several performance improvement strategies. TNCPE also conducts custom training sessions and presentations to interested organizations. We also will present our Baldrige for Beginners Workshop on-site to businesses wanting to learn the basics of our program in a team setting. In 2016 we presented 4 workshops reaching over 120 attendees.
