Training units tend to be understaffed and underfunded, so even in the best of times and even with a training mandate, getting the word out can be a challenge. But here’s the good news: even if you’re a unit of one, you don’t have to work alone.

This rapid-fire session will provide you with some practices and tips to get the most bang for your very small allotment of bucks by delivering better content and creating better relationships.

Please note this session will have interactive breakout rooms, and will NOT be recorded.

 

Alex Kipp

Director of Education & Engagement

New York City Conflicts of Interest Board

Alex Kipp is Director of Education & Engagement at the New York City Conflicts of Interest Board where he leads a team that teaches classes, creates videos, print, social media, and eLearning content and conducts lots and lots of webinars for New York City’s 325,000+ public servants. His work has been described by at least one elected official as “impeccably deranged,” which, Alex hopes, is supposed to be a compliment.
