TESTIMONIALS

"Thank you very much for your presentation to our national management team. We were so fortunate to tap into your vast knowledge and expertise. We will definitely be back to talk tools and approaches."
Fisheries and Oceans Canada (on Strategic Internal Communications, February 2016)

"The information provided in this course made me think about briefings in a new context. It caused me to reflect on my own strengths and weaknesses. I was already able to apply the lessons learned in a briefing with my manager at break time."
Communications Advisor - Canadian Food Inspection Agency (on Effective Oral Briefings and Briefings Notes in-house workshop, January 2015)

"The tools that were presented will be very helpful in my work and personal environments. Great facility. I will come back for other training."
Program Manager - Office of the Secretary to the Governor General

"A relaxed space where everybody felt free to talk"
Research Scientist - Health Canada (on CEC's training facility)

"... Several people made a point of telling me how well the presentation went, how useful it was to them and how well I did, leading the presentation. I frankly owe these kudos to you and an excellent training session. This was, in fact, the first time I have ever delivered a presentation in such formal circumstances. My ability to perform (without nerves!) in front of a high-powered group was entirely due to the learning I received from you at the “Effective Oral Briefings and Presentations to Senior Officials” session in March (2014). So thanks, Josef!"
Strategic Communications Advisor - Environment Canada

"You folks have the best materials! I thank you and your colleagues for your continued support. It's one of the reasons we continue to come back!"
Manager - The Canadian Medical Protective Association

"You continue to offer exactly what (government) workers need to learn - at the right time!"
January 2014 workshop participant - Health Canada

"I had a really good experience. I heard good things about your training before and I wasn't disappointed."
K. Martel - Transport Canada

"I would like to take the opportunity to thank you again for another excellent course.  I keep returning to the CEC for training as I am continually impressed by the courses, which I find to be relevant, practical, interesting and informative. My experience to date after attending 3 courses is that the instructors chosen are dynamic people who deliver the content in an engaging and accessible manner. As someone who actively pursues professional development and has been to a number of facilities, I truly appreciate this approach and will continue to turn to the CEC."
