STS Highlights: April 2021

For our area, April marks an Annual Spring Break. This time of year inevitably brings nicer weather and vacationers. Traffic gets heavier. Crowds get bigger. We’re still living in a time of COVID-19 and while numbers are decreasing, it’s still very important to continue taking steps to stay safe (masks, handwashing, social distancing, etc.)

The goal with these monthly resources is always to help elevate your career, department, or organization. Please FORWARD this email to anyone who could benefit from the content. As always, we take pride in helping you meet your training requirements and goals.

STS Highlights: February 2021

I associate the month of February with two very important topics for annual training. Black History Month provides opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history. It is a great time to discuss diversity, communication, tolerance, and respect. Valentine’s Day also provides a great marker for your annual discussions surrounding sexual harassment awareness and related training.

All the best,
Patrick
