Credits:0Be Ready Certification Program (MSBEREADY1)
Credits:0Be READY is a workplace readiness training program to assist individuals in Payne County who have been displaced due to recent economic changes because of COVID-19. Real-life Education And Development for You. Be ready for your next job opportunity by sharpening your skills and earning nationally-recognized certifications. Set the foundation for your next career and job interview. Courses are self-paced, online curriculum and accessible to fit into your schedule.
Courses Include:
National Career Readiness Certificate by ACT
OSHA10 Certification (General Industry or Construction)
Medic First Aid/CPR Certification
Professional Skills Certification
Job Search and Interview Preparation
Professional Skills Certification: Professional skills are often referred to as “soft skills” (or social/emotional learning, emotional intelligence, etc.) and are quickly becoming the new yardstick for measuring success, and with good reason. Research shows that these soft skills account for as much as 85% of an individual’s success, whereas traditional “hard skills” (academics, corporate job training, IQ, etc.) only account for 15%. Employers have placed a premium on employees’ ability to communicate, to think critically and solve difficult problems, to learn new skills, to lead others, to function independently, to work as part of a team to accomplish a common goal, and to accept and thrive with constant change. This can be accomplished with soft skills training. In a digital world where technology allows people to be more closely linked than ever before, professional skills are the traits that allow us to reach out and connect with others and be our best selves. Much like emotional intelligence, which is the capacity to express our own emotions and respond to the emotions of those around us, soft skills drive and define personal skills and interpersonal growth. Some professional skills examples include having a positive attitude, effective time management, and empathy. They are more fluid rather than concrete, and are transferable to a variety of settings, including the workplace.
Course is comprised of 8 modules - 20 hours
Attitude: This is where it all starts—attitude. The ability to respond to guidance, to control your emotions, and to keep your focus is so important in today’s workplace. The importance of a positive attitude cannot be overlooked.
Communication: Communication skills are something we often take for granted, but lack of communication is one of the biggest reasons teams and projects fail. It’s important to know what to say and how to say it to get your point across.
Planning & Organizing: Major accomplishments don’t just happen. They require careful planning to make sure nothing is overlooked and mistakes aren’t made. Prioritization, time management, and system creation skills are important.
Critical Thinking: Now more than ever before, the ability to think critically about a problem and identify a solution is extremely important. Employers are looking for people who can think “outside the box” and solve complex problems.
Interpersonal Skills: Interpersonal skills, like empathy for customer service, and responding to conflict, are extremely important in any people-based service business. You need to know how to present yourself in an acceptable manner.
Teamwork: Many people think of sports when they think of teamwork, but the truth is teamwork is just as important in the workplace as it is on any sports field. You need to know how to work with others to achieve a common goal.
Professionalism: Most businesses hold their employees to high standards of professionalism, and it’s up to each employee to know and live up to those standards. “I didn’t know” is not an acceptable excuse.
Media Rules: Technology has made it easy to communicate, but there are right and and wrong ways to do this in the workplace. You need to make sure to respect technology-based guidelines and restrictions in the workplace.

Credits:0Be READY is a workplace readiness training program to assist individuals in Payne County who have been displaced due to recent economic changes because of COVID-19. Real-life Education And Development for You. Be ready for your next job opportunity by sharpening your skills and earning nationally-recognized certifications. Set the foundation for your next career and job interview. Courses are self-paced, online curriculum and accessible to fit into your schedule. Courses Include: National Career Readiness Certificate by ACT OSHA10 Certification (General Industry or Construction) Medic First Aid/CPR Certification Professional Skills Certification Job Search and Interview Preparation Professional Skills Certification: Professional skills are often referred to as “soft skills” (or social/emotional learning, emotional intelligence, etc.) and are quickly becoming the new yardstick for measuring success, and with good reason. Research shows that these soft skills account for as much as 85% of an individual’s success, whereas traditional “hard skills” (academics, corporate job training, IQ, etc.) only account for 15%. Employers have placed a premium on employees’ ability to communicate, to think critically and solve difficult problems, to learn new skills, to lead others, to function independently, to work as part of a team to accomplish a common goal, and to accept and thrive with constant change. This can be accomplished with soft skills training. In a digital world where technology allows people to be more closely linked than ever before, professional skills are the traits that allow us to reach out and connect with others and be our best selves. Much like emotional intelligence, which is the capacity to express our own emotions and respond to the emotions of those around us, soft skills drive and define personal skills and interpersonal growth. Some professional skills examples include having a positive attitude, effective time management, and empathy. They are more fluid rather than concrete, and are transferable to a variety of settings, including the workplace. Course is comprised of 8 modules - 20 hours Attitude: This is where it all starts—attitude. The ability to respond to guidance, to control your emotions, and to keep your focus is so important in today’s workplace. The importance of a positive attitude cannot be overlooked. Communication: Communication skills are something we often take for granted, but lack of communication is one of the biggest reasons teams and projects fail. It’s important to know what to say and how to say it to get your point across. Planning & Organizing: Major accomplishments don’t just happen. They require careful planning to make sure nothing is overlooked and mistakes aren’t made. Prioritization, time management, and system creation skills are important. Critical Thinking: Now more than ever before, the ability to think critically about a problem and identify a solution is extremely important. Employers are looking for people who can think “outside the box” and solve complex problems. Interpersonal Skills: Interpersonal skills, like empathy for customer service, and responding to conflict, are extremely important in any people-based service business. You need to know how to present yourself in an acceptable manner. Teamwork: Many people think of sports when they think of teamwork, but the truth is teamwork is just as important in the workplace as it is on any sports field. You need to know how to work with others to achieve a common goal. Professionalism: Most businesses hold their employees to high standards of professionalism, and it’s up to each employee to know and live up to those standards. “I didn’t know” is not an acceptable excuse. Media Rules: Technology has made it easy to communicate, but there are right and and wrong ways to do this in the workplace. You need to make sure to respect technology-based guidelines and restrictions in the workplace.

Professional Skills Certification: Professional skills are often referred to as “soft skills” (or social/emotional learning, emotional intelligence, etc.) and are quickly becoming the new yardstick for measuring success, and with good reason. Research shows that these soft skills account for as much as 85% of an individual’s success, whereas traditional “hard skills” (academics, corporate job training, IQ, etc.) only account for 15%. Employers have placed a premium on employees’ ability to communicate, to think critically and solve difficult problems, to learn new skills, to lead others, to function independently, to work as part of a team to accomplish a common goal, and to accept and thrive with constant change. This can be accomplished with soft skills training. In a digital world where technology allows people to be more closely linked than ever before, professional skills are the traits that allow us to reach out and connect with others and be our best selves. Much like emotional intelligence, which is the capacity to express our own emotions and respond to the emotions of those around us, soft skills drive and define personal skills and interpersonal growth. Some professional skills examples include having a positive attitude, effective time management, and empathy. They are more fluid rather than concrete, and are transferable to a variety of settings, including the workplace.
Course is comprised of 8 modules - 20 hours
Attitude: This is where it all starts—attitude. The ability to respond to guidance, to control your emotions, and to keep your focus is so important in today’s workplace. The importance of a positive attitude cannot be overlooked.
Communication: Communication skills are something we often take for granted, but lack of communication is one of the biggest reasons teams and projects fail. It’s important to know what to say and how to say it to get your point across.
Planning & Organizing: Major accomplishments don’t just happen. They require careful planning to make sure nothing is overlooked and mistakes aren’t made. Prioritization, time management, and system creation skills are important.
Critical Thinking: Now more than ever before, the ability to think critically about a problem and identify a solution is extremely important. Employers are looking for people who can think “outside the box” and solve complex problems.
Interpersonal Skills: Interpersonal skills, like empathy for customer service, and responding to conflict, are extremely important in any people-based service business. You need to know how to present yourself in an acceptable manner.
Teamwork: Many people think of sports when they think of teamwork, but the truth is teamwork is just as important in the workplace as it is on any sports field. You need to know how to work with others to achieve a common goal.
Professionalism: Most businesses hold their employees to high standards of professionalism, and it’s up to each employee to know and live up to those standards. “I didn’t know” is not an acceptable excuse.
Media Rules: Technology has made it easy to communicate, but there are right and and wrong ways to do this in the workplace. You need to make sure to respect technology-based guidelines and restrictions in the workplace.

Elevate Leadership: The Power of the Strengths Zone (MSEL082418)
Credits:0Ever wonder why some tasks are accomplished so easily, almost with very little effort, while other tasks seem difficult and laborious to complete? Ever get so engrossed in a task or project that you lose all concept of time? All individuals have natural strengths and weaknesses.

Everyday Leaders - Being a Decisive Leader (MSEL082815)
Credits:0Elevate Leadership: Why Purpose Matters: It's Good For You and Good For Business (MSEL092217)
Credits:0Employees and supervisors have grown jaded about mission and vision statements. Too often, they become meaningless platitudes that decorate the lobby, but no one actually reads. Similarly, employees are all-too-familiar with the request to do more with less, whether it’s related to staffing levels, budgets, or any number of variables that affect the bottom line.

You and your colleagues will be more engaged and productive when you’re driven by purpose, and that will add value and make money. Purpose is essential in a tough economy.

Embracing Emotional Agility: Welcome Change and Thrive in Life and Work-Lunchtime Learning (MSLL090721)

Lunchtime Learning: Gaining Confidence & Charisma (MSLL091223)
Credits:0We’ve all seen people who ooze confidence and charisma. They are secure in who they are, but they aren’t arrogant. They are self-aware, and they are generally willing to take big risks because they believe anything is possible. They acknowledge their own achievements, and they are the first to celebrate yours, too. People feel better just being around them. From the outside, it appears confidence and charisma happen with ease, and either you have them, or you don’t. The truth is both are learned behaviors that can be mastered with practice and persistence.

Lunchtime Learning: First Impressions to Final Farewell: Creating Impactful Experiences for Incoming (MSLL101122)
Credits:0An employee’s first and last days at a workplace say a lot about the company’s culture. Research shows that new hires decide in the first six months whether to stay with your organization or not, and effective onboarding has a big influence on their decision.

Brainstorming is both an art and a science. There’s more to this creative thinking process than simply throwing out ideas for consideration. In this interactive session, you’ll explore what brainstorming is and what it’s not, why there are added benefits of bringing others together, how to create an environment that fosters creative ideas, and tips to facilitate a session that gets great results. In addition to learning how to make a brainstorming session effective for your team, you will also discover practical and creative ways to challenge yourself to think creatively when you’re working solo.

Credits:0Heartbreaking workplace violence situations are now occurring on a weekly basis, and recent examples have reminded us that they’re no longer isolated to schools. Whether your colleagues have mentioned it or not, they have thought about the "what ifs" regarding a situation at your place of business.

Retreat and Refocus: Using Time Together to Create-Lunchtime Learning (MSLL121421)

The result is often renewed energy and a revived sense of community among team members that can result in a positive shift in your company’s culture and a renewed excitement in working together to accomplish your team’s daily duties. When done right, this time together can encourage everyone to step out of the details and focus on the big-picture elements that contribute to the company’s success. What does this look like for your team? Explore essential aspects of retreat planning and how to plan one that fits your team's culture and budget.

Barriers to public speaking and work-arounds to manage them will be discussed, as well as time-tested methods to get your head in the right space before you meet with others to share your ideas.

This session will offer strategies to up your meeting game, regardless of where you are on your org chart. Facilitator Amie Haar will explore how to prepare to get the best possible outcomes, how to stay present and focused from outside distractions, and how to manage your body language and read the language of the person with whom you’re meeting.

Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Do you simultaneously feel overworked and underutilized? Are you often busy but not productive? Do you feel like your time is constantly being hijacked by other people’s agendas? If you answered yes to any of these, the concepts discussed in Greg McKeown’s book “Essentialism” can offer you a way out. This book explores a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution towards the things that really matter. Essentialism is not one more thing - it’s a whole new way of doing everything. It’s about doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Essentialism is a movement whose time has come. Join us for an engaging book club discussion regarding the concepts the book explores, and how we can actively utilize them in our day-to-day life.

Credits:0When it comes to business, we’ve all heard the phrase you’ve only got one chance to make the right first impression. The reality is – the first and most important first impression starts with you. When you walk out the door each day, how can you be confident that you can take on whatever challenges the world throws at you? For many women, this starts by looking in the mirror and liking what they see. In cognitive science, embodied cognition is the idea that the mind is connected to the brain and that the body influences the mind. Using this science, researchers from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University have found that clothing can affect our behavior. So, it makes sense that when you’re not feeling your best, you’re more likely to unconsciously not be at your best. Learn how Alison Lumbatis, a one-time work-from-home telecom network engineer, wife and mom of three, transformed her personal yoga pants rut into a booming business that empowers women to embrace and express their confidence by building a functional and fashionable wardrobe that fit their daily lives.

What if instead of looking across the table and wishing we had what someone else has in the ways of natural gifts and abilities, we honored them? What if instead of closing ourselves off, we create space by sliding our chairs over to make room for more? What if we say “yes” to the talents I bring to that table, AND “yes” to yours?
