Workforce Development Boot Camp Presentation

I had a great time presenting today at the SC State Library's Workforce Development Boot Camp. Here is my presentation along with the group project and some photos of what the groups accomplished. Everyone did a great job! The biggest commonality was that no one had any $$$ for a marketing/PR budget for their proposed workshop. This is usually the case and just means you have to be as creative as possible!
