How does 4D structure its pricing, and why aren’t prices listed on the website?

At The Fourth Dimension Training & Consultancy, we believe in customized pricing models that align with the specific needs and scale of each client. Because every project is different, we don’t list fixed prices on our website. Instead, we tailor our pricing based on factors like the number of trainees, training format, duration, and industry requirements. For example: · If you’re training a large group, we offer more efficient pricing models, such as per-day rates rather than per-person, to help you get the best value. · For NGOs or organizations with social impact missions, we significantly reduce our prices to support bulk training at sustainable costs. For consulting engagements, we offer multiple pricing options depending on what suits your organization best. These include: · Success-based models, where our fee is a percentage of the savings we generate—if we don’t deliver measurable value, you don’t pay. · Hourly or daily consulting rates for short-term expertise. · Retainer or project-based models for long-term partnerships. We’re flexible because we understand that every client, from global corporations to non-profits, operates under different constraints—and we aim to be a strategic partner, not just a service provider.
