EAP Workshops for Employees
The EAP takes a proactive approach to teaching self-help skills to individuals and teams or departments. We encourage you to read through our course descriptions and invite us in to your facilities to present topics of interest.
When you call to discuss building skill sets among employees, please remember we like to consult with the supervisor, via phone or appointment, first. This allows us time to evaluate the appropriateness of the topic, gain insight into the team’s strengths and needs, and gear the presentation specifically to your team.
