employers don't always tell us, but it's clear that true professionals
are the first to be considered for promotions or plum projects, and are
consistently successful in their life and work. For
some, professionalism means dressing well at work. For others it means
doing a good job. But professionalism includes so much more. Professionals are the kind of people that others value and respect. In
this hands-on workshop, learn about the qualities and characteristics
of a professional. Explore the elements of professionalism and how it is
"judged." Discover your professional strengths, and learn strategies to
build professionalism in areas where there is potential for you to
grow.To register please contact MTEC at 204-957-7437 or email register@mtec.mb.ca._____________________________________________________________________________________Table Service Etiquette
