FBLA is Selling Little Caesars Kits!!!

Order will be delivered on Monday, October 25 at 3:30 p.m.

Thanks for supporting FBLA!

"What happens when I leave campus???"

Adult students are welcome to come and go at their leisure. There are no rules about when breaks can be taken; HOWEVER...(and you knew there would be a "however") each time students leave campus, they are to check out using the time clock.

Some students are writing down their time--but not checking out and back in on the time clock--please take a minute and check out properly. Some students are leaving campus and never checking out. Please be honest and follow the rules. If it becomes a habit, Sponsors will be notified!! Also, know that adjustments are being made to your time if you leave campus without clocking out properly.

The Adult Lab has a lot of students coming and going--and adjusting time takes a few more minutes with every person.

Remember that when you go to work--there won't be anyone there to adjust your time! Get used to using a time clock NOW!!!!!

What if I have Workplace Relations and Job Seeking?

As you were told by Colleen, attend the Workplace Relations course on the Tuesdays that it is held. Then check in with Colleen to see what work you missed.

Students who do not have Workplace Relations at this time will attend the Job Seeking class.

One-time Offering Classes Starting Soooooon!!!!!

Register for WORKPLACE RELATIONS and JOB SEEKING SKILLS along with EFFECTIVE PRESENTATIONS this week!!!

Both classes start soon:

Job Seeking Skills and Effective Presentations begins Wednesday, September 8 at 9:50 a.m.

Workplace Relations begins Tuesday, September 14 at 9:00 a.m.

Get registered TODAY!!!!!

UTIPS IS WORKING AGAIN!!!! :)

The UTIPS problem has been fixed. Please go back to typing your name in, and hitting the "Submit" button when you complete a UTIPS test. The score will be emailed directly to me with your name!

If you took a UTIPS test on Wednesday or Thursday of this week--stop by Leslie's desk and let her know the score.

Thanks for your patience!

Dress for Success changing days....

Welcome Back Everyone!!!!!

Beginning after Labor Day, the Adult Business Lab will host "Dress for Success" on Thursdays. Students who dress up in professional dress on that day can put their name in the box for a drawing during a Student Social.

It is important for all students to practice "dressing for success" so that their wardrobes are ready for the workplace when they are!!!!

Everyone is welcome/encouraged to participate!

UTIPS MAINTENANCE!!!!!!

I have just become aware of a problem with the UTIPS site--even though you type your name in, the name is not appearing in Leslie's email. So the scores come in as "no name."

Until further notice, print out your UTIPS score, and write your name on the paper. Then turn it into the Assignments bin. Hopefully this will be cleared up soon!

Thanks!
