i did not know that i am going to find out more about that
That's an ambitious agenda for 2 hours, Maria. I would be interested in knowing who's doing the program. Good luck.
Actually, I have scheduled a seminar for retention in May. This will be an in-service for instructors. It will cover 5 topics from Personal Empowerment for Instructors, Adjusting students attitude and building self-confidence, How to include personal development in student curriculum, as well as other topics. It will run for 2 hours.
If you would like to know who I contacted let me know.
Periodically, MaxKnowlege offers webinars on related topics. Frequently, state or regional associations offer seminars. The Career College Association is another resource. Would it be possible to convene a meeting of representatives from nearby institutions to discuss retention issues? What would you like to see covered in a seminar?
