Rarely do you meet a training instructor that you remember many years later. I attended a Professionalism course taught by Karenthia whose concepts I still use to this day. She didn’t just teach the concepts, she modeled them as well. Karenthia is a great communicator and would be an asset to any team.

Sr. IT Project Controls Manager - Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority
The communications training that Ms. Barber provided to BTU staff was well organized, well received, and thought provoking. The training engaged staff in discourse about innovative and accessible ways to communicate with members and each other. Staff inquired about the most effective ways to communicate certain messages and Ms. Barber humbly gave suggestions, encouraged staff to share best practices, and also reminded us of ineffective ways to communicate. BTU staff thanks Ms. Barber for a great communications training!
