SUMMARY:The Onboarding Experience:  How to Promote Retention for the Very First Day
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 8th 10AM -4PM\nMembers $150 / Non Members $200 \n\nRetention begins on day #1 of a person’s employment.  If the onboarding process is effective and engaging\, staff will build a strong commitment to the organization and its mission.  If the onboarding process feels stale and/or overwhelming\, staff will become disengaged almost immediately.  This is especially true with younger workers.\n\nWe will offer practical ideas of how managers can set standards and promote the mission with new staff from Day #1.  There are “tricks” to onboarding.  This class will cover some great ideas that are easy to do\, but will make a significant difference.  If you want staff to stay\, you want to make their experience in the early days of employment positive.  Scenarios and tools will be offered in this session.\n\n\nCancellation Policy: Registrations for Single day classes canceled with less than 24 hours notice will not be refunded.  Registrations for Multi-day classes canceled with less than 48 hours notice will not be refunded.  No shows will be charged the full registration fee.\n\nRegister Here: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/bs8en4k

SUMMARY:ONLINE Informed Decision Making
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 9th 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM\nMembers $70 / Non members $95\n\nIn this webinar we will go in-depth about how to help an individual live an independent lifestyle when faced with the challenges of having lived a life directed solely by parents/guardians. The following topics will be discussed:\n\n• Learned helplessness and other mental barriers that prevent individuals from realizing their full potential.\n\n• Scenarios where individuals have to make a choice regarding a difficult decision and how staff need to construct all of the outcomes (pros and cons) before choosing the best outcome for themselves.\n\n• The Dignity of Risk – Every decision we each make has an element of risk. Unless there is imminent harm\, an individual has the right to make a decision and take a risk\, even if that decision can lead to a negative outcome. We all learn from mistakes\, and individuals should have the right to learn as well.\n\n• Video clips and activities are included in the webinar to enhance learning.\n\nCancellation Policy: Registrations for Single day classes canceled with less than 24 hours notice will not be refunded.  Registrations for Multi-day classes canceled with less than 48 hours notice will not be refunded.  No shows will be charged the full registration fee.\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:IN PERSON Community Inclusion\, Intersectionality\, and Rights
DESCRIPTION:Date: May 9th 10AM – 4PM\nMembers $150 / Non Members $200 \nCommunity inclusion is not simply a process of going out into the community and walking around the mall.  The ideas go far beyond that.  The idea is tied to intersectionality and ableism\, terms in the disability field that are very important and very basic.  This class will focus on community inclusion and the concepts behind it.  We will discuss how to truly make inclusion effective and at the same time address intersectionality and the promotion of rights and a person’s place and acceptance in society.\n\nThis is not a lecture\, but rather a practical discussion of how to support people with disabilities more effectively.  We will discuss the actual ideas behind community inclusion and engagement.  What can programs do to truly support the person?  What are the best approaches and ways to maximize our efforts?  We will offer scenarios and planning tools to help attendees implement positive changes at their program.\n\nCancellation Policy: Registrations for Single day classes canceled with less than 24 hours notice will not be refunded.  Registrations for Multi-day classes canceled with less than 48 hours notice will not be refunded.  No shows will be charged the full registration fee.\n\nRegister Here: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/ttxmatp
