Today we began an event planning assignment- to prepare to host a district open house for our program. We had a brainstorming session and watched an instruction video. Please use your knowledge from class to organize what you think our schedule for the event should look like so that we can put it together, assign tasks and confirm spending based on budget next class.

Hi everyone- By now, you should have completed your Foundations of Workplace Safety course online with my TOC on Monday & Tuesday. If you have not, please do so over the weekend. Please email me proof of completion when you are done as you will get marks for a successful score.

Also, we will be playing review games starting next week, so make sure your game is ready to go for Monday. Please be sure to do the self-evaluation that I handed out and use this rubric as a guide to make sure you completed the assignment’s criteria.

We began event planning today and will continue to work on this as we also review for our final exam coming up on Feb 25.
