Webinar Training

Astyra Staffing Manager, Dionne, recently subscribed to a webinar site and introduced the rest of the office to the great world of online learning.
 
We are now working hard to develop our professional skills through this new mode on a variety of websites! We have already attended six webinars covering business etiquette, digital communications and Human Resources policies. Through these courses, we have been able to reevaluate our current processes and implement better practices based on current industry standards.
 
We plan to continue attending webinars to maximize our knowledge and efficiency!
 
Have you ever engaged in a webinar? How did it go? What were some of the key points?
