TEACHING
Student Diversity in the Classroom

Author Anais Nin stated, “We don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are.” Cultural awareness is a critical element in today’s educational environment. When we value diversity, we are supporting and respecting each person’s right to be who they are – a unique individual.
 
CARE’s WorkLife Solutions provides you the resources needed to successfully create a safe, thriving school for both staff and students. Our Diversity in the Classroom training is designed to discuss with staff the need for increased cultural awareness based on our changing student population. Schools in the tri-county area have been providing this interactive training to their staff during in-services.
 
Interpersonal Relationships
Developing effective relationships with coworkers is a critical factor in personal success. Working well with others translates to better interpersonal communication skills. In respecting others in our workplace and learning to handle conflict, we can decrease our work-related stress. The skills we use to relate within the work environment are also transferable to our personal lives. These workshops are designed to help employees become more successful team players.
 
Organizational Development
Today’s organizations must continue to become more efficient and effective to succeed. These workshops provide tools necessary for employees and supervisors. Productivity stems from well-rounded employees that can react quickly, work well together and be self-motivated. Increasing employee morale is a low cost approach to creating a quality work environment. Creating a productive workforce requires true professional development in areas that strengthen the core of the organization.
 
Risk Management

Decisions to reduce vulnerabilities by either mitigating the risks or applying cost effective controls are necessary to create a productive workforce. The process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks arising from operational factors and making decisions that balance risk cost with mission benefits is risk management. Also, WorkLife Solutions orientations are available to maximize program understanding, confidence and utilization.
 
Personal Development
In order to work most successfully with others, we need to consider our own personal strengths and areas for growth. These workshops provide a combination of new and advanced skills to become a more productive employee. To open up our minds to new ideas, new challenges and new solutions, each person must be willing to challenge their personal growth. “You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself.” -Galileo-
 
Quarterly meetings
CARE’s WorkLife Solutions hosts a quarterly meeting for our contracted companies. During these meetings, we discuss current human resource concerns and brainstorm solutions. The quarterly meetings are a great opportunity for our many companies to network with each other. We are told over and over again how helpful it is for human resource professionals to meet other HR professionals in their industry and in their community. With similar challenges, the companies can reach out to each other and create a forum for communication.
 
Also during these quarterly meetings, a CARE’s WorkLife Solutions Trainer conducts a training session. These trainings offer the attendees an opportunity to experience a new training on a relevant topic that they can then take back to their organization.
