Testimonials from previous attendees:
鈥淚 liked the broad range of topics, which touched on many aspects of our day-to-day activities as Supervisors. Enjoyed, the introduction to the various resources available, it also increased our range of networking with cross-departmental contacts. I definitely acquired new tools for my developmental tool belt.鈥�
"I really enjoyed the learning circles, getting a chance to talk with other managers in small groups. I also like the fact that we were always with the same group of people in the courses - it gives you a chance to really get to know people鈥�
