“We shared stories and talked about real life experiences! (Not your typical class where you get bored and want to bang your head on the desk)”
“I really enjoyed the workshop. I also really appreciated the flexible schedule of breaking the workshop into two days – I was able to get the contact hours in and still have a good portion of my day left to accomplish my work.”
Mark Wright, Town of Pittsboro Public Works Superintendent
“I really enjoyed the leadership training/format as well as the discussion we had during the training. The smaller setting was great for discussion purposes because I didn’t feel overwhelmed and hesitant to participate in the discussion.”
Rick Jordan, Town of Cary Reclaimed Water Supervisor
“The BEST continuing ed training! I’ve been in the water & wastewater industry for 20+ years and Erin’s courses are top of my list!”
