Terrence, I caution you to compare yourself to any other institution. I would probably say, "We offer hands on training so you can understand the theory and be able to apply it in your place of employment." Then back up what your are saying with your program outcomes disclosures. Cindy Bryant, Facilitator

Karen , You have covered to key points, one that I would like to expand upon. Using unemployment as an example according to several studies there are many negative effects in unemployment on both personal and social levels. The person who loses their job can feel a depreciating value of self worth. In a situation where a job is absent, even if one quits it, there is a feeling of questioning one's decision making abilities or self doubt. This is not the appropriate time to approach someone with such an important decision. Cindy Bryant, Facilitator

Denise, Active listening is a key to understanding. Students appreciate when you take the time to assist them in finding an answer. Cindy Bryant, Facilitator
