De OCICT maatwerk-methode houdt in dat op basis van de behoefte van de klant - en indien nodig na een intakegesprek - een individueel opleidingstraject wordt opgesteld. De trainingen worden veelal individueel gevolgd, zodat iedere training een maatwerktraject is. Klassikale trainingen zijn natuurlijk mogelijk, mits ze aansluiten bij de leerbehoeften van de deelnemers / opdrachtgever.

Alle onderdelen van de training kennen een voortdurende wisselwerking tussen theorie en praktijk. De inhoud van de training kan vooraf per cursist worden aangepast en tijdens de cursus worden bijgesteld. De focus ligt op maatwerk: het traject wordt afgestemd op de doelstellingen van de deelnemer(s) en/of opdrachtgever, ongeacht of het individueel of klassikaal wordt aangeboden.
