KALO MINA! WELCOME BACK!
January is all about new beginnings and starting fresh with a new and improved understanding of yourself and your goals.
With this in mind, we invite you to grab your favorite coffee and read up on the inspirational efforts of our featured young professionals, strategic partners and affiliates.
This month’s issue will focus on quality assessments and training resources (and discounts) that are available through Philo4Thought. As you know from our 2020 series, we have teamed up with various affiliate groups to provide you with reliable and high-quality courses, seminars and one-on-one mentoring as well as supplementary academic and career guidance. As always, our goal is to educate, inspire and empower our readers.
Our January Seminar, Resources For Career Success, will provide an outline of essential training and discussion points to help those transitioning into the workforce or from their current job to their next professional opportunity. As always, we are here for you.
