Ohio Northern University’s Center for Corporate Engagement (CCE), a resource for professional training and leadership growth, has opened enrollment for programs which provide "practical approaches with immediate applications."

The inaugural CCE professional development series, offered for fall 2023, includes single and multi-day programs designed to give employees and their employers the tools to achieve professional success, career advancement, cultural enhancement, higher ROI and other crucial competitive advantages.

Practitioners with real-world experience and expertise are facilitating the programs.

“There are many unique business challenges today from manager soft skill development, to better business acumen, to making good business decisions, to leaders having the resources they need to meet goals and objectives. Turchick says. “Our facilitators have the experience and the ability to deliver practical and applicable tools to create impactful outcomes.”

The open enrollment programs are held at The Inn at ONU, 401 W College Ave., beginning in late September and running until early December.
