The Cloudburst Group provides outcome-focused technical assistance and training. Through application of adult learning principles in training and capacity building focused technical assistance, our aim is to help improve the effectiveness of programs and services for socially and economically underserved persons. Relying on a needs-analysis approach to identification of challenges and barriers, our teams develop targeted action plans with short and long term objectives to best meet the needs of our clients and projects.
