Participants must have a high speed Internet connection (no dial up), and hardwired is preferred to wi-fi. A headset or earbuds must be used, and the participant must have a webcam, if no camera in their laptop, with the camera left on; video participation is a requirement, to ensure the connection to the instructor and other participants. A quiet place to focus is required, free from distractions. These details will be part of the INA process.

"Jeff did an excellent job on this course material.  Some of the topics could be very involved and he managed to keep the course engaging and very interesting.  He definitely has a lot of real world experience which made it easier for us to understand the concepts when he related it to a working environment."  Glen MacKenzie, Maritime Truss Ltd.

TESTIMONIALS

I thoroughly enjoyed the Business the Leadership Course. It was a great opportunity to evaluate what more I can do to provide leadership within my professional and personal life. I very much enjoyed discussing the challenges other participants face within their organizations as well as developing innovative solutions through group brainstorming. It’s a course that challenges supervisors, managers and business owners to think outside the box when looking for fresh and relevant ways to help propel their organizations to greater collaboration and success. - Lenita Hanson
