Join our Etiquette Workshop to master the art of professional communication in both the digital and in-person worlds! Whether you're a student, educator, or professional, this session will provide valuable insights into best practices for courses, virtual workshops, social media platforms, and professional email etiquette. Learn how to foster respectful interactions, manage your digital presence, and enhance collaboration in virtual environments.

Courtney Fadler, our expert speaker, holds two etiquette licenses from the prestigious Emily Post Institute in Business Etiquette and Children’s Etiquette. She regularly teaches etiquette classes for corporations, universities, non-profits, schools, and more. Her approach isn’t about learning "rules" but instilling a legacy of life skills based on the principles of consideration, respect, and honesty. Courtney teaches that these three principles can guide you through any situation, help you make lasting impressions, and build stronger relationships.

This workshop will also help you improve workplace relationships, get hired or promoted, and boost productivity. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from an expert and communicate with confidence and professionalism!
