If you cannot attend an ESEL seminar in person, this online seminar is the next best thing. Here, we cover the same subject matter that we cover in our 3-day seminar, but at your own pace. The information is available to revisit when you want or need to.
If you have attended an in-person seminar, this online seminar is a great tool for refreshing your mind about the transition process and staying on top of your detailed plan. During the 3-day seminar, it can often feel like you are drinking from a firehose of information. Joining this online version of the seminar allows you to take it at your own pace and revisit the information as you progress through your transition.
Participants will have access to live webinars and one-on-one coaching opportunities with our executive career coaches.
