Providing Quality Education for the Insurance Industry Since 1985
INTRODUCTION
WELCOME to Career Achievement Workshop-Seminars. We are pleased to work
with you and hope to make your experience highly informative, interesting
and useful, yet enjoyable.
The seminar work is planned
to encourage your professional growth by having you actively employ your
present knowledge and reasoning abilities in learning new information.
You will find some tasks relatively easy, while others may be complicated
and somewhat difficult. They will vary also in the extent to which they
allow you to feel finished with them. In those respects, of course, they
reflect the everyday world, in which you live and work.
In life and in work, you
don't just sit back quietly waiting for things to be given to you. No,
you expect to put forth effort in order to obtain things of real value.
Knowledge, if it is to be of real value, must be in the outcome of effort-mental
effort. So dig in, try your ideas and use your skills. Talk with one another
in doing the tasks and share your views.
