Speakers and topics for the Become Employable seminars will include:

• Tom Tonkel of The Professional Edge on coping skills,resumes, interviews and getting the attention of Human Resources Professionals and Hiring Managers.
• Dan Surface of Surface Coaching on motivational techniques to help take charge of your life.
