Student Testimonials:

★★★★★ "Some of the items presented do seem common sense/intuitive, but oftentimes in the "real world" we get overwhelmed and encumbered by everything that is going on, we skip steps and forget to follow a coherent process. I have recently held a few meetings where I didn't feel as effective as I could have been. This course was a great step to refocus/reorganize and move forward." - Dacia Drury

★★★★★ "I really enjoyed this course! I thought the material was well-organized and presented in an engaging way. The content was also very relevant- even though I already lead a lot of my own virtual meetings and have been doing so for a long time, it reinforced and validated some of the ideas I use. I also liked the format of the course, presented in short bite-sized pieces and with the reiteration of simple concepts to drive home the principles. 10/10 would take again!" - Sarah Wiezel

★★★★★ "I'm new to virtual meetings and the course made it easier to understand the basics of virtual meetings.
