About the RD Centre for Learning

The RD Centre for Learning is a collaboration of three talented, creative qualitative research and innovation practitioners.

Having worked in the research and innovation business for 30 years, we identified a need to provide top-notch training and coaching services to qualitative researchers, people who work in the creative process and users of market research information.

Nancy Siller and David Kay founded Research Dimensions in 1978, joined by Margaret Imai-Compton in 1981. In the early days of Research Dimensions, Nancy and Margaret managed and conducted the bulk of qualitative research while David headed up the quantitative division.

Now in its 30th year of operation, it is a testament to the leadership and professionalism of Nancy and David that Research Dimensions continues to break new ground in the market research industry.

After a detour to Apple Computer, an independent moderating practice and certification as a Professional Coach, Margaret is delighted to be collaborating once again with Nancy and David to offer the RD Centre for Learning.

The RD Centre for Learning leverages the best of three disciplines as the foundation for each program:

• Innovation
• Qualitative Research
• Professional Coaching

Our training is intensive and hands-on. All of our offerings are further supported by Individual and Group Coaching during and after each course. Both Essential and MasterClass levels are offered for our Innovation Facilitation and Moderating Training intensives.
