Departmental Training And Facilitation

In order to improve departmental productivity and effectiveness, the Employee Development Program is available to facilitate departmental trainings, strategic planning, and/or retreats.

Facilitation

Identifying core values can help produce cohesion within a department that is so necessary to working toward common goals. The development of mission statements provides articulation of a common purpose within the department. Strategic planning can provide an increased ability to control long-range direction. The Employee Development Program facilitates these processes through the use of exercises and discussion designed to achieve goals. We seek the input of all effected members of the department in order to make better decisions and to achieve buy-in for decisions

Retreats

Time spent away from the office and its responsibilities can help departments rejuvenate and provide some needed fun. Many departments on campus hold annual departmental retreats and use the day to combine fun with learning. The Employee Development Program can provide learning experiences for your departmental retreats. Any training session we offer through our training calendar is available as well as sessions tailored to your learning objectives. True Colors, a personality assessment tool, has been one of the most requested topics for departmental retreats.

Training

Most departments will, at times, find the need for trainings that present new information or refreshers for those activities that are performed regularly. Working as a team, working with different personality types, dealing with difficult people, and customer service are a few of the topics we frequently present. We will meet with you for a consultation and customize training to meet your specific needs.

Please call 575-6103 for more information or to schedule a consultation.
