August Happenings
During these intense days of summer, we're providing some good reasons to come in from the heat and join our members for some networking and learning. At our July meeting, we had a career focus and learned more about opportunities for involvement in the chapter. This month we'll be shifting our focus to the topic of leadership. We hope you'll join us at the meeting on August 24th.

Do you have a training program that you’ve delivered to hundreds of employees what seems likes thousands of times, and it works to perfection? It seems like it would be easy to convert it to an e-Learning course – but then you realize that only 30% of the content is in the materials, and the rest is in the instructors’ minds and everyone has a different way of teaching the material. Sound familiar?
In this session, you will hear from Tanya Coomes, co-author of E-Learning Uncovered: Articulate Studio'09 about the Lumps, Bumps and Bruises of integrating e-Learning into your curriculum. |

The Secrets of Building Trust in the Workplace
Article submitted by Greg Forte, Innova Creative Training Solutions
Scottish author George Macdonald said that “it is better
to be trusted than loved.” That may not be entirely
applicable in private life, but it certainly is a sound axiom
to live by at work. Experts agree that trust is one of the
most important ingredients to a productive, synergistic
and communicative workplace. Much has been said about
building relationships with co-workers, bosses and
customers, but while that is an important element to
success, the need to forge trusting relationships is the real
key.
What are some warning signs that you may have a
trust issue in your workplace?

Members, Guests, and Vendors now have the opportunity be even more involved in the monthly events. By sponsoring a CFC-ASTD Event you get to be apart of the excitement in a whole new way.
Events are the lifeline of chapters like ours. However, they are also the greatest operating expense. Unfortunately, the larger and better the event the more we are forced to charge to attend the event to off set the cost.
In an effort to enhance the experience of attending a CFC-ASTD Event and still keep the attendee cost low we have now agreed to offer The Event Sponsorship Program. To Learn More Click Here
