"I came here a blank slate with little expectations and received a fabulous learning experience." - Cispus Workshop Participant 2003

Tower Rock from Cispus CampusWorkshop sessions cover a wide range of communication skills, presented by sponsoring agency professionals who bring to the workshop a wealth of experience and skills in team development, meeting facilitation, and outreach and public involvement. Sessions are team-taught and interactive in nature; they are designed for adult learners and specific to natural resource issues.  Although this is an introductory level workshop, participants already communicating with the public, media, and interagency teams will find this a great opportunity to refresh themselves and learn new skills. Participants return to work with fresh ideas, renewed enthusiasm, and improved skills that can be applied the first day back at the office.
