Who Is a Scheduling Consultant?
Anyone who advises Consumers or Providers in the course of their work are what we call Consultants. Trainers are consultants. Search firms are Consultants. And of course claims, project management, and scheduling consultants are Consultants, too.
Our Innovations Mean Higher Profits for You
In two significant ways, ICS's innovations translate into Big Bucks for you. The Scheduling Compendium, for the first time ever, combines all Scheduling Practice standards, best practices, guidelines, recommendations, glossary, roles, formulas, and concepts into one comprehensive treatise. ICS brings together all Scheduling Practice areas of concentration under one roof: education, training, consulting, certification, placement, research, publications, and tools.
How ICS Can Help You, the Consultant
We can help you become more profitable and more successful in whatever aspects of Scheduling Practice consulting you consider your strengths.
	ICS-Network provides your consulting company with the opportunity to make big bucks, and grow your company significantly. As a Network Affiliate, your workload will even out (no more peaks and valleys), you will receive your invoice payments more quickly, your marketing costs will drop, you'll have new clients, and you will make money by referring Clients and Colleagues to the Network.
	ICS-Institute trains apprentice schedulers according to the ICS Scheduling Compendium. You can become a licensed ICS-Institute instructor. As part of their training, they will be required to work as apprentices under the mentoring of a journeyman or master scheduler. In cooperation with ICS-Institute, ICS-Network Affiliates can employ these newly-trained apprentices, and bill them out at significant profit. The newby gets experience, you get cheap labor, and the Scheduling Practice gets a new scheduler. Everyone wins.
