Who We Are

Above and (way) beyond

The Ardent difference lies in a blend of deep L&D expertise, high-impact creative, business sense, and a tenacious work ethic.

We’ve got you

We work tirelessly to help our clients achieve their goals. The Ardent way strikes a balance between structure and intuition, enabling us to work efficiently and adapt to change.

Solutions that stick

Ardent designs practical and effective solutions by focusing on what matters – your business, your goals, and most importantly, your people.

Plenty of range

Our team brings curiosity, a flexible mindset, and progressive ideas to every engagement. We find the joy and meaning in our work every day. Seriously, we geek out on this stuff.

Open ears, open minds

Great communication runs through every successful initiative. We know our stuff, but we don’t know it all. Context is everything, and we always come prepared to listen.

We succeed together

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in three decades of client service, it’s that relationships form the foundation for great work.

Meet our team

Everyone at Ardent is driven to create high-impact learning and development programs that truly make a difference in the lives of our learners. This passion is reflected in everything we do: our team is thoughtful, tenacious, and highly-skilled.
