Can Googling a Potential Hire Put You At Risk
More and more hiring managers are using Google, MySpace and Facebook to conduct background checks on job applicants. One in three of those searches result in the rejection of the applicant, according to a recent study. In this two hour Brown Bag seminar, we will show how conducting online research can subject companies to liability, and will describe policies and procedures that can keep your company out of legal trouble.
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand." — Confucius
The value of experience as a tool in the creation of knowledge was seen as early as the 4th century B.C. when Aristotle stated, " Using the language of knowledge is no proof that one possess it."The Training AdvantEdge has found that simply attending a workshop is not enough for learning to occur. We believe that learners must do something during the process of acquiring new knowledge in order for the experience to be useful.
Based on this philosophy, we have created our own experientially-based E.D.G.E. learning model.
Get the edge with E.D.G.E.
For any experience to truly be beneficial, it needs to encompass four elements:1. EXPERIENCE: Exposure to a workplace issue
2. DISCUSS: Reflect on resolving the issue
3. GENERALIZE: Compare it to past experiences
4. EXECUTE: Align your actions with your new perspective
We view every workshop as a "learning journey." Without the integration of these four elements, learning will not occur.
