The "Change Contract"
This course involves a change contract, an agreement signed by the program attendee and their supervisor stating that the registrant will take the information gained during the classes and incorporate it into their workday. Jamie will follow up with emails to assure the changes have been implemented and to answer any questions the participant may have. This value-added follow up is an opportunity for registrants to consult with Jamie and share with their supervisor how the program has successfully improved their on-the-job skills.
Special Discounts
For companies that register two or more employees or that register the same employee for both sessions, a 10% discount will be applied.
This program is offered in partnership with the Schuylkill Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber member price for this course is $1,100 per person/per session. The same discount is also available for members of Penn State Schuylkill's Consortium of Co-Op Employers. Contact the Continuing Education Office at continuinged@psu.edu for discount codes.
