Course Overview

Increased workplace demands mean there is even less time each day to get what you need done. This course will introduce techniques you can use in the office (and at home) to successfully manage all that is expected of you.

Come learn how to make things better! As Stephen R. Covey said, “The key is in not spending time, but in investing it.”
