The dean of our division, Tom Monroe, was recently honored with the Joan Simon Lifetime Achievement Award by his peers of the Illinois Community College Board workforce development committee, weTRaIN. The award is not conferred annually, rather awarded to those outstanding individuals whose careers in community college workforce development are distinguished. We wanted you to know that because of what it offers your businesses. During Mr. Monroe’s tenure, this department enrolled the largest number of workforce training participants ever in the Illinois community college system. These numbers translate into top caliber instructors and a best-in-class educational curriculum for your selection in business, industry and safety training programs.

In this catalog you will see a broad array of programs to choose from: • Training workshops on supervisory, management, team building, and computer skills. • Enormous libraries of online business and technical courses for professionals to take 24/7 as needed. • Custom classes that we can provide for your work group, at your location or ours, exactly when you need them. Focused on the professional, corporate and workplace programs that can increase business skills, enhance supervisory techniques, or help anyone be safer on the job, this catalog does not show the family and personal enrichment classes and workshops also offered by our department. We still have a complete array of those in a separate catalog mailed to households, rather than businesses like yours. To see them, look for the online, searchable version at the bottom of our website at www.lc.edu/CCL. Click on the catalog view that is titled “Community Learning.” The goal in offering two separate catalogs is to enable you to quickly and easily find what you seek. Please let us know your thoughts about this with comments on Facebook!

Emotionally Intelligent Manager in the Workplace

Your customers, your employees, and your bosses watch you in action every day: What are your emotions telling them? How does your emotional maturity, or lack of it, impact productivity and profit for your company, shop or agency? Do you know that 75% of career derailments are caused by lapses in emotional competence rather than technical skill gaps, lack of business acumen or lack of experience? Are you aware that more than half of employee turnover is NOT related to pay, benefits or career opportunities, but rather to a desire to get away from “my lousy manager”(despite what might be said in an exit interview)? In this action–oriented class, you will confidentially self–test your personal Emotional Quotient, learn tips for increasing your competence in each of the five areas leading to high Emotional Intelligence, and work through typical cases encountered by managers everywhere so that you can immediately begin to apply “High E.I.” in your workplace.

4 Communication Styles of I–Speak©

According to more than 35 years of business research by DBM in New York, people use one of four communication styles that frame how they speak and filter what they hear. When you discover what your style is from a survey in class, you can learn to listen more effectively to others and speak more clearly with everyone, no matter their own style. I–Speak© provides insights into the use of language that can help you overcome listening filters and craft compelling messages. I–Speak© also provides clues to use so you can recognize the communication styles of others, and flex your personal style to match, thus becoming more influential and persuasive.

Green Building 2012 International Energy Conservation Code Applications for Illinois

Photovoltaic Design & Installation

This building energy code training session will cover on-the-job applications of the 2012 International Energy Conservation Code including critical concepts for code officials, design professionals, and construction trades. Code changes will affect residential and commercial buildings in a variety of ways. Training will help school officials, as well as home building and remodeling specialists, to gain a clearer understanding of how key aspects of the state law affect new and existing construction, their work, and the community as a whole.

This 32–hour course provides an introduction to the basic principles of photovoltaic (solar) design, installation guidelines, and safety issues involved with photovoltaic power systems. Student technicians will learn the basics of sizing a residential battery–less grid–tied system, wire sizing, over–current protection and grounding, and review fundamental design criteria for off–grid stand–alone systems including specifying batteries, controllers, and battery–based inverters. Learners will develop a basic understanding of the core concepts necessary to work with both residential and commercial PV systems. This workshop is designed for individuals seeking employment within the growing solar industry, for homeowners wanting to install systems on their own homes, or anyone interested in learning more about this emerging technology.

NEW!

• As of January 1, 2010, within two years after being employed as a registered technician, a pharmacy technician must become certified by successfully passing the PTCB examination or another Board– approved pharmacy technician examination in order to continue to perform pharmacy technician’s duties (does not apply to pharmacy student interns). • Some pharmacies or chains require certification regardless of how long someone has been registered as a pharm tech (check with the HR department of such a pharmacy). • The Career Step training program provides educational information to prepare a student to take the examination (exams are administered and invoiced separately by the examining body).
