Each webinar will be designed to provide interaction, discussion and feedback. Webinar participants will receive a packet of down-loadable training materials that include session powerpoints and readings. Registrants will also be able to view the webinar via post-webinar recording, so you can refresh your learning experience at any time. Webinars will last 60 minutes and will be hosted by Heartland Center trainers Milan Wall and Kurt Mantonya. This spring's topics include:
