Pictured above are LCP staff members, from left, Christian, Vija and Matt, and RICA Helen, dining out Japanese-style at a restaurant near our hotelAll staff in LCP as well as RICA travelled to this worthwhile conference in Melbourne after Easter.
A comprehensive number of guest speakers and workshops were provided, and I think we all got a lot out of attending. Speakers of note for me were Tim Costello, CEO World Vision, and Sue Seawright from the Centre for Adult Education.
I attended the following workshops:
From Chaos to Calm - organising careers events that make a difference - Karen Penrose, Career Industry Council of Australia (CICA)
Kate Southam On-the-couch with Smart Educators. Kate Southam is the syndicated Career writer whose articles are featured every Saturday in The Mercury Positions Vacant column.
Career Writing: what's involved & how to manage the process from idea to publication - Julie Farthing, Career Dimensions, Vic
Meeting the needs of small to medium business - Attracting and retaining the right staff - Cecile Riddle, Prime Performance, Vic
Partnerships don't happen by magic - Andrew Worrall & Helen Nowosilskyj, LCP SA
All workshops were good, but the final one by the LCP from SA was excellent.
Next years is in Adelaide, and I hope to be able to attend, if this one was anything to go by.
