HOW TO | Practical Guides for Supervisors
Audience:
New or upcoming supervisors and seasoned supervisors seeking a refresher.
Program Overview:
This practical “How To” series is designed with busy supervisors in mind. This unique training program offers eight mini-courses that contain instructional videos covering best practices and tips for success, as well as 16 useful templates and forms. Each “How To” guide contains approximately one hour’s worth of content, for a total of about eight instructional hours. In addition, there are opportunities within each “How To” guide to interact in online discussion boards with fellow supervisors from public agencies all over the state to share ideas, successes, and support.
This 8-week course does not have a scheduled meeting time, rather all content is offered “on-demand” so that supervisors can work through the content at their own pace. By signing up for this online course, you are committing to just about an hour of training each week. By focusing on one topic each week, supervisors can easily navigate and focus on critical areas of management. This training course includes the following topics:
- WEEK 1: How to Facilitate Trust – April 20th – 26th
