CE Hi-Lites: Convenient, Affordable Online Continuing Education

Interested in taking one of the new online leadership and management continuing education (CE) courses, but missed the deadlines this summer? “Everyday Leadership”, “Influence”, “Change Management”, and “Supervision without Micromanagement” will be offered again beginning October 20, 2010.  These practical, self-paced courses take just two hours per week.  New to online classes?  MLA’s friendly support team will help you have the best possible experience, and material is accessible from both work and home. The courses are led by well-known MLA CE instructor Pat Wagner.

All programs run October 20 to December 1 – six weeks.

Eight MLA CE credits per class

$200 for non-MLA members; $150 for members

Each course is self-paced – participants read and write the weekly assignments at their own pace convenience. Writing assignments involve brief discussions: commenting and responding to class material and to the other participants’ writing. If you like to read and write, these courses are for you. The courses are accessible online from work, home, or public computers (hotel, public library, or your sister’s house while you are visiting). Expect about two hours of work per week. First week and last week are introductions and evaluations. The courses are based on Pat Wagner’s popular live MLA classes. They cover practical aspects more than the theory of leadership and management.

 

For more information, including a copy of the syllabus for each class, contact Pat Wagner.
