Professional Development Courses

In order for a training program to have a lasting impact on an individual and, in turn, his or her organization, it cannot merely be an event. Instead, it must be part of an integrated process focused on insuring long-term application and retention.

Stetson University recognizes and embraces this fact and employs the Plan, Do, Grow model to ensure maximum return on investment. This approach provides participants an opportunity to:

• Plan
  Assess themselves prior to the training event.
• Do
  Participate in an interactive and informative training workshop.
• Grow
  Maintain newly learned skills through exercises, readings, and additional assessment tools.

This process begins prior to participants attending our workshops and prepares them for the skill building workshop. Instructors have the latitude during and after the workshop to stretch and hold participants responsible for the skills learned with a number of post workshop activities and events aimed to reinforce the skills presented.
