Great Experience The experience was really great. The guest speakers were excellent in their delivery and were experts on the Discussion topics. HCI is keeping current with trending statisitics and relevent topics. Love how you can go back and view the videos and presentations if by chance you were distracted by work during the conference.

SWP Exceeded Expectations HCI SWP Exceeded Expectations. I was pleased to join the HCI Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) course this week. The content and tools provided will help us move our workforce into the future, meeting our strategic goals. Thanks to Cindi Koetzle for her leadership, candor, positivity, and support throughout the course. I recommend this course to anyone with a strong business strategy.

Recertification Process is a Joke Don't expect to have an easy time trying to figure out how many credits you have towards recertifcation. They require a certain amount of credits, but there is not an easy way to determine how many you have. You need to count them invidually. Then to make matters worse, their recertification process requires you to upload a copy of your HCI transcript, but that cannot be downloaded. I guess they want you to screenshot it. I am incredibly disappointed, but have to play their games because I need recertification.

2 Good presentations Two out of the five presenters held my attention. I really thought that Shelly and Justin's material and presentation was the most thought provoking. 2nd would be Elora's presentation. The others felt like they were just reading their slides.

Strategic Workforce Planning Review Just completed the Strategic Workforce Planning Certification Class. I felt the class was good overall, and provided a lot of great information. However, I felt the material would have been better spread out over another day or so. I think it was a little rushed, and there was some sections that were more detailed and required more attention than others. I also think we could have used more samples to work with, vs. always using our own organization's information. I think it would have provided a better foundation for our learning and provided clear examples, vs. us having to try and figure a lot of things out, when this is our first time going through the material.
