Over
thirty years of experience
as an educator in both Canada and the United States has
taught me that in providing training it is imperative to
offer not only a theoretical understanding of the topic, but
give the participants practical skills that can immediately
applied. Training or professional development does not have
to be tedious, in fact it should be enjoyable. People learn
best when motivated in a positive, non-threatening
environment.
