Testimonials
“This course was exactly what I needed to prepare me for transitioning to management and I feel more confident towards taking the leap! Thank you!
“It was my first in person training since before Covid, and I have to admit I was kind of anxious at the prospect of sitting in a room with strangers after so long working from home. However, it turned out to be a wonderful experience. Best of all – her materials were incredibly practical and useful.”
