August 24, 2023
9:00-11:00 a.m.

As part of our skills improvement and development we are proud to offer a course in Critical Thinking.  Critical thinking is the skill of questioninganalyzingand evaluating information to form reliable judgments and actions.  It is the process of using rational and logic reasoning to assess and analyze a problem, gather evidence and come to a conclusion. This process requires an open mind, which allows individuals to objectively consider different points of view and have a balanced outlook. Skills acquired through critical thinking involve the ability to think analytically, identify connections, differentiate between facts and opinions, and draw logical conclusions. Critical thinking also encourages one to question and redefine assumptions, distill information, evaluate evidence, and come to informed decisions that best address the issue at hand. Critical thinking can lead to more informed choices, better problem solving strategies, and improved communication. 

This course is designed to help your organization, on the whole, to align towards sound improvement by helping staff move from the status quo to introducing improvement initiatives.

This interactive session will not only meet State requirements, including updated material for 2023, but assures your supervisors understand how to recognize and prevent sexual harassment in your workplace, limit liability for you and themselves, and effectively communicate such information to your employees.

Once & For All is the most effective training for inspiring immediate behavior change and building a culture of respect.
