Staff & Professional Development Preview

Please come to HCC on August 4 and help SABES-West figure out what to offer that is relevant to your program's staff and professional development goals. In addition, SABES-West will give a preview of some of the activities that we expect to offering over the coming year based on our newly negotiated workplan with the DOE. Some of the questions we will be asking:

  • What program and staff development needs do you foresee for your program in the upcoming year?
  • We’d like to offer more trainings on-site at programs. What sorts of trainings would fit best at your program?
  • SABES-West would also like to draw from all the talent and expertise in the field and our region. Is there anyone in your program that could offer a training?

Time: 10:00 a.m. - noon
Place: HCC, G221
