Connections and Advanced Connections are ideal for:
- Administration staff from the registrar's office, financial aid office, admissions, and other highly visible service areas such as campus libraries.
- Supervisors and managers including department and division directors and their associates, as well as deans and vice presidents.
- Custodial, housing, and other staff such as public safety officers who have daily contact with students.
- Student employees who need training in service and teamwork skills.
Both programs feature service issues specific to higher education, such as registration and financial aid. Connections and Advanced Connections work well as a combined, two-step training program, or as individual service training programs. Connections tends to focus on individual skills, while Advanced Communications is more relationship and teamwork-focused.
Connections and Advanced Connections includes comprehensive leader guides, participant materials, videos, and certificates of accomplishment.
