New Year, New Learning for January 2022

Limited-Time Online Courses Available in Bridge

Start the year out right with these courses to help you stay warm, get centered, get noticed, and - just maybe - achieve that fabled inbox zero. Remember - these courses will only be around until February!

January's Courses of the Month are:

Cold Stress (Core Topic: Safety) - 7 minutes
Guided Meditation to Start Your Workday - 5 minutes
Managing How You're Perceived (Core Topic: Giving & Receiving Feedback)- 6 minutes
Managing Information Overload - 30 minutes

Don't forget the Blinkist Course of the Month!

Unsubscribe: How to Kill Email Anxiety, Avoid Distractions, and Get Real Work Done by Jocelyn K. Glei - 15 minutes

Blinkist courses are quick audio summaries of bestselling productivity and personal development titles. That's right - no need to watch your screen - just listen! (Transcripts available for the hard of hearing.) And as an added bonus - no quizzes!

Courses of The Month, and Blinkist courses all count toward your additional learning requirements. If one also satisfies a Core Topic, that will be indicated in the course description.
