“I’m a recent recipient of ATAP and completed my first course last semester so my insight may be limited at this time. I will add that it’s been several years since I have been enrolled in a formal college course and to say it’s been challenging is an understatement. Through it all, I have enjoyed the sessions and am excited to learn new techniques that I know will enhance my ability to provide exceptional service to my organization. I’m extremely thankful for the opportunity to participate in ATAP and encourage others to do the same if they have desires to complete additional training.”
