Core Web Course: Fundamentals of Management

The Fundamentals of Management course is designed for new managers to build
the skill set they need to successfully lead their department or
organization, as well as support existing managers looking to improve their
skills.

This course was developed by Julia Davis, an experienced information
science professional with a strong passion for employee-focused leadership
practices, accessibility and procedural standardization. Her experience
includes time spent in both academic and public libraries, as well as the
legal and insurance industries. She currently serves as the Information
Systems Manager for Smith, Hulsey, and Busey, a full-service business law
firm in Jacksonville FL.

Sessions tend to sell out weeks in advance but are offered several times
each year. You only need to sign up for one session.
