Workshops

Workshops can fall into many categories, often applicable to various real-world issues. With many great choices, where does one begin?

To help you narrow down the areas of your focus, we have designed the “Workshops” program based upon NTC’s five management tracks and core knowledge areas. Tracks offer attendees a way to key in on specific workshops that may be of interest, but all attendance is elective during any sessions. Under each Workshop Track, you will find a list of topics and presenters highlighted in NTC 2005 conference (subject to change). Below are five key "tracks" we are offering this year:

Track 1- Strategic Management

1. Leadership – Current and future professional development practices.
2. Career Development – Planning strategies, tools, and techniques.

Track 2 – Operational Management

1. Information Technology – Methods, concepts, and practical applications in the workplace.
2. Communication – Overview of oral and written communication, interpersonal skills, how to work with interpreters, using technology (i.e. Video Relay Service) and formal and informal presentations.

Track 3 – Program Management

1. Human Resources – Staff management with knowledge of current personnel issues and management techniques.
2. Equal Employment Opportunity – Compliant handling process, affirmative action, and diversity.

Track 4 – Quality of Life

1. Improving workforce productivity – time management, stress management, and working effectively with others.
2. Facing and dealing with the challenge of life – finances and health.
   

Track 5 – Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Government Leadership Showcase

The Leadership Showcase provides an opportunity for attendees to discover best practices used in the workplace and learn from personal narratives of experts about methods of management and experiences used successfully to move up in the government.
