Employer perspective

A lot of our employees have never taken any formal presentation training and liked the fact that they were learning tools to make them into better speakers so that they didn’t become the kind of speaker that they didn’t enjoy listening to or learning from.  We definitely would recommend this course to other companies.

Employer perspective

The approach that AWES took was effective and has been utilized since. The practical and effective approach that AWES used prompted me to become more involved with the organization after the program concluded.

About the resources

The Workplace Integration materials are just what I have been searching for.  Alberta seems to be producing some really great work in immigrant services – makes me wish I was there.
