Leadership Training Series and Fall Workshop Run

We've been working hard at TT&S to offer some improvements to our training workshops. Here's a few exciting developments we wanted to share.

Manager's Development Series

First, TT&S is excited to partner with BAND and DCN to present a Manager's Development Series presented by BSC. This three day curriculum goes over the basics of management and is designed to prepare employees for leadership positions within the company. Trainees will also benefit from learning about BAND, DCN, and TT&S through lunch and learn events, so they will know the resources available to them through these organizations as they take on leadership positions. What a great opportunity for employees to learn leadership skills they can take back with them to their companies! This series is offered twice, once in mid-November and another in late January. Check out the link to sign up:

Annual Offerings

Secondly, TT&S has a long line-up of classes through this fall and into January 2024. We surveyed member companies on which classes were essential for employee development on an annual basis, and we partnered with vendors to make these classes happen and to extend partnerships so we can offer them annually for years to come. Knowing which classes will be offered annually will help in employee development planning -- no more guessing which classes will be offered each year! Classes we're planning to offer annually include:

 - CompTIA A+, Network+ and Security+

- Fiber 1, 2, 3

- WLAN Security

- IPV6

- Wireshark

We're glad to offer these trainings to align with your training needs. We'll review our list of classes after this year to make sure our training offerings are still relevant and in line with your needs.

Class Availability

The last change we're excited about is the inclusion of how many seats are available for each class right on the workshop sign up page. The available seating will be a live count, so prospective trainees can see how much their seat will cost based on how many students are registered for the class. This will reduce uncertainty about training costs, since many classes offer a different cost per student based on how many have registered for the class in total.

Please feel free to explore our workshops. We're available for any questions or comments to make the training we offer and the way to sign up as smooth as possible.

 


Who's "Competent" and why it matters
