New class: Columbus State Speaks

Update | Wednesday, January 22, 2020

Columbus State values you. Your contributions, commitment, and expertise matter as we support the Central Ohio community, align our work efforts for student success, and continue to build innovative and expansive programs for our students. When we step back and take a bird’s eye view, there is so much that makes Columbus State unique and comprehensive. Our vision, mission, and values help frame our work. Language guides our interactions and decisions while tradition, connection, and shared experience remind us of our commitment to student success and inclusion.

In the Columbus State Speaks class, Professional Development & Retention invites new and seasoned employees to share in a conversation of who we are, what we do, and how we purposefully align our work, dialing into your role and its connection to college-wide outcomes. We will also examine the specifics of definitions, acronyms, and common experience to create clarity and shared focus and understanding of the long-term view of our future. The two-hour class is offered multiple times through March.

Friday, January 31, 10 a.m.-noon 

Tuesday, February 4, 1-3 p.m.

Wednesday, February 12, 10 a.m.-noon

Thursday, 1-3 p.m.

Wednesday, March 4, 10 a.m.-noon

Friday, March 20, 1-3 p.m.

To register, log in to Cornerstone and hover over the “Learning” tab in the upper left. That will bring up a pull-down menu. Select “Events Calendar.” Click on the event, then select “Request” to register. (See this guide for search and registration tips.)
