The Free Geek board, in conjunction with staff liaisons, are planning an In-service for Winter/Sring 2012 to conduct trainings, board/all-staff meetings, and generally facilitate open communication and strategic planning discussions (dates and related logistics TBA). Following is a list of proposed trainings, categorized by relevant department/committee.


All paid workers should feel free to edit this page directly to add training topics that are required to fulfill their job descriptions and their general ability to navigate Free Geek processes, systems, policies and communication channels. (If you want to add something but lack the wiki editing training to do so, email your additions to alamb@freegeek.org.)
