Spoiler Alert - New Workshops afoot!

 Keep a look out for our soon-to-be released revamping of all our workshops.


What does this mean?


We might be dropping some that are never attended and adding new ones that we have never tried before.  It's OUR way to adapt to changing times and changing needs to help you.


Soooo - have any suggestions?

Oh - did I mention FREE?

I have always thought that CareerLink needed to do more to let people know who we are and what we do. Sometimes it seems like the only people who know we exist (or think we only provide services) are the unemployed. While we offer more and more services along these lines, invaluable assistance, I will dare to say, CareerLink is so much more. YES - we have an excellent website to help the LOCAL job seeker find LOCAL employment. YES- we have on-site staff to provide personalized help with employment and unemployment services, Veteran assistance, job training, GED, and more. YES - we have a Computer Resource Area (or the CRA) for people who do not have access to computers for Unemployment tasks and job searching. YES - we have a roving, mobile computer lab that travels far and wide to bring our services to your town. Just look for 'The LINK,' an RV-sized vehicle cruising around. It doesn't get more convenient than that. But did you know that - NO - you DO NOT  have to be UNemp...

WHAT THE . . Dogs Eating Frogs?!?!

Sooner or later you have to EAT THAT FROG! Bon Appité What madness is THIS? What crazy dog is ready to scarf down on that innocent frog (nicely laid out on a bed of cream and crumpets perhaps?)  How did I get this whacky canine to pose for this? Welcome to the world of AI (Artificial Intelligence). This is but one illustration I used for a workshop entitled "Essential Communication Techniques". To create this, I used the picture generation AI built into the Microsoft EDGE web browser (called 'CoPilot'). By typing into the chat box a request to "create a photo image of a border collie with red and white fur preparing to eat a frog sitting on a plait on a breakfast table". And Voila!  I have a border collie doing all types of things throughout this presentation. This is just one example of how AI can do amazing things to assist with workflow (at least for me).  Would you like to see what else this intrepid canine does?  Then register for my workshop and have a...

Any requests from the peanut gallery?

 As many of you know, the schedule of workshop topics has been consistent over the years. Every so often a new one may be added, an old one taken away. But buy-and-large it has been consistent.  This is so everyone can attend them all.  Miss 'Internet Basics, Pt. 1: Tech and Terms' this month? Don't sweat it, it'll be back next month. Ohhh, but woe unto thee that has attended them all! Besides the plethora of knowledge, you would have gained, there is nothing new to learn! You don't even get an' I attended every CareerLink® virtual workshop and lived to tell the tale' Commemorative T-shirt! Well, my dear friends, I am open to requests. Is there a topic you would like me to present that I have not covered yet? A 'special guest' (within reason - I cannot swing getting Taylor Swift to co-host, try as I might) you would like to talk to and plumb the depth of their knowledge? Keep in mind it should relate to some aspect of improving your career/job prospe...
