  • This course supports the correct usage of federally appropriated funds to ensure compliance with relevant laws and regulations. Covering Volumes 1 & 2 of the Government Accountability Office (GAO) Principles of Federal Appropriations Law (the Red Book), this course enables participants to understand their fiduciary responsibilities concerning appropriated funds in the federal government. Specifically, this course enables participants to determine the availability of appropriations as to purpose, time, and amount. The course also provides participants with the knowledge to ensure that obligations are charged to the correct fund sources, which can help certifying officers avoid spending personal money to correct errors. Participants will learn to avoid Antideficiency Act violations, which can, in many cases, lead to negative audit and congressional reports. Participants receive an ebook copy of GAO’s Principles of Federal Appropriations Law (the Red Book), including the GAO Annual Update and complete Index and Table of Authorities. Participants will be everyone who deals with “money” in the federal government, including budget analysts, accountants, auditors, contracting officers, program managers, government purchase card holders and approving managers, and attorneys. Preference will be given to R1 budget employees if the class fills up. We'll be sure notify the class with 3 weeks notice if we need to make changes to the roster.

  • Why struggle to make a friction fire when today we have matches and lighters? Why try to create an obsidian knife when steel blades are so easily bought? Is there any benefit to making a shelter from natural materials instead of using a lightweight tent? There is tremendous value in understanding traditional wilderness skills and having the competency needed to make do without modern gear. On the simplest level, a person who is not dependent on modern gear will be comfortable under any conditions. (You never know, after all, when you might be put into a situation without your equipment.) This workshop will introduce students on how to prepare for surviving in the “Wild.” Instruction will include the seven priorities of survival: positive mental attitude, wilderness first aid, shelter, fire craft, signaling, water, and food gathering. Learn how to build a personal survival kit, natural shelters, purify water, create friction fire, find wild food, and master a variety of wilderness crafts. Wilderness skills helped people survive in the outdoors and weather the aftermath of natural disasters. There will be various outdoor portions of the class, students need to dress accordingly.

  • There is a direct correlation between how you communicate and your overall success both at work and home. You cannot not communicate; everything you say or do sends a message. Today’s technology such as email, Twitter, and the Internet has made communication faster and more accessible. Telecommunication is a misnomer; we’ve lost the human moment. Additionally, most of us operate on automatic in our everyday face-to-face communication. This highly interactive program brings communication into consciousness and supplies tools to help you send the message you want.

  • This seminar is about change, awareness of internal and external barriers and how to triumph above them. Women hold just 20 percent of seats in parliaments globally. Women became 50% of the college graduates in the early 1980s.A meager twenty-one of the Fortune 500 CEOs are women. Women hold about 14% of executive officer positions, 17 percent of board seats, and constitute 18 percent of our elected congressional officials. Girls are increasingly outperforming boys in the classroom, earning 57% of undergraduate degrees in the United States and girls graduate with higher GPAs. A Woman's Guide to Leadership is a hands-on seminar with how-to-steps for every business woman who wants to conquer the communication nuances that can enhance her credibility, and make a greater impact on the job. Credibility and power are attribution variables, they are a perception-in the eyes of the beholder. Women come to the workplace with a set of complex communication behaviors that create an undeniable challenge; women are often seen but not heard. The strategies presented go beyond common sense and will provide women with cutting-edge verbal and nonverbal techniques that can be applied directly with immediate success

  • The purpose of this course is to examine the causes, dynamics and consequences of natural resource conflicts, as well as the range of possible approaches to prevent and resolve such conflicts. The course will consider the merits of conventional approaches to manage natural resources conflict – legislative, administrative, and judicial – and emphasize the theory and methods of collaboration. Conventional approaches to prevent and resolve environmental conflicts often leave citizens, advocates, and decision-makers dissatisfied with the outcomes. This dissatisfaction in turn leads to a recurrence of disputes, which strains relationships, and increases transaction costs. The most effective ways to prevent and resolve natural resource conflicts is to create opportunities for the right people to come together with the best available information to address issues of common concern. The core proposition of this “collaborative” approach to preventing and resolving conflicts is that it provides more meaningful opportunities for citizen participation, fosters more informed decisions, produces more durable and widely supported outcomes, improves working relationships, and minimizes the costs of disputing. This approach to citizen participation and public dispute resolution is applicable to a wide-range of public issues. We will offer students plenty of opportunities to put skills into practice. Extended syllabus available on request. Twelve hours, 8:00 am to 5:00pm on day 1, 8:00am to 12:00pm on day 2.
