- Overview
- 15 hour course that covers essential elements of Human Resource procedures.
- Details
- This 3-session (15-hour) training reviews and explores human resource functions specific to ABE programs – establishing staff needs, recruiting, hiring, orienting, supervising, evaluating, and terminating teachers, administrators, and staff members – what we refer to as “the staffing continuum.” The sessions allow novice and veteran directors to examine existing and new policies, to confirm their positions or consider new angles. Sessions are both active and instructive.
