Motivating and Challenging Your Employees
Understanding Leadership vs. Management and Why Each Matters
Communication - The Key to Getting Results
This class will look at a variety of motivational techniques to help you determine what is best for your organization. We will look at ideas on how to deal with difficult employees and how to keep your most productive employees. We will look at ways to find out what motivates your employees, what fits your current budget, and discuss how to challenge your employees, set goals for them and keep a positive atmosphere.
Leadership in today’s workplace requires a combination of skills and behaviors in order to realize success. Leaders must balance the need to manage day to day activities while using critical skills to lead their teams toward realizing a common vision or purpose. Both leadership and management are critically important to organizational success, yet each requires very different skills. During the course, you will review the evolution of leadership, come to understand the different functions of managing vs. leading, and focus closely on the skills which are most important to your success as a leader. Specific discussion of the role of influence vs. power as it relates to aligning others to accomplish a common goal is a central theme within this course. This course is the first in a series of eight courses to earn your Excellence in Leadership Certificate. Tuition includes a textbook.
Communication is often talked about as an important leadership skill, but what does effective communication look like? In today’s workplace, leaders are often called upon to engage their employees in transitions of focus, processes, and direction. Communication and your ability to influence and inspire action is perhaps the most important building block in the process of leading others. You will learn techniques to communicate in order to inspire the team to deliver results. You will explore listener focused communication while concentrating on what the listener needs to hear to spark behavior change. You will also explore the adjustments required to communicate with team members in the same location as well as those across the globe. This course is the third in a series of eight courses to earn your Excellence in Leadership Certificate. Tuition includes textbook.

Water Pipe Sizing for Plumbers (online) This online course covers the most commonly used UPC method of sizing water distribution systems as described in Code sections 610.7 - 610.9. This is the sizing that will be used in the course you are beginning. It should be noted that the Uniform Plumbing Code offers three other ways to size water piping systems. Appendix A is useful in sizing larger systems, especially if the water supply fixture units and length limits in Table 6-6 are exceeded. Appendix L allows for separate fixtures in a bathroom to be sized as a group. This allows for large apartment complexes and condos to be more economically sized. Footnote three in Table 6-5 permits fixtures, in branches that are supplied with both hot and cold piping, to be assigned 75 percent of their Table 6-5 values. The benefit, in larger installations is cost savings that could result from smaller pipe sizes being required. The authority having jurisdiction should be consulted before using any option other than the standard sizing method. This class has been approved by the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board for two hours of plumbing discipline. CITR-1015 / $59 > 68302 Williams

Journeyman Plumber with Gas Exam Prep Course (online) This course is designed to help you become more familiar with the Uniform Plumbing Code. This is accomplished by asking a series of questions. To receive the greatest benefit you should take the time to find each answer in your code book. Do not guess. The answers to these questions, as well as the answers that you will need when you take the Journey Plumber Test with Gas, will be from the 2009 Uniform Plumbing Code, not what you may or may not practice in the field. The knowledge and skill you gain from this course will be based on the effort that you put into it. Each set of questions are based on a specific chapter of the code book. In the actual journey plumber test, the questions are random and result in a wider search area of the code book for each answer. This course was intentionally not set up in that manner. Instead, each set of questions concentrate on individual chapters, this is to give you a deeper depth of study of the specific topic that is being covered in each chapter. An advantage of an online class is that you can work at your convenience and at your own pace. However, the journey person test is timed and this luxury will not be there.

Let’s Knit a Mosaic Boomerang Wrap There are many ways to add color to your knitting from the yarns we choose to the stripes we add. Many knitters shy away from color, because they don’t feel confident or they think that their choices are “just wrong”! Let those preconceptions go with mosaic knitting. Mosaic knitting is where only one yarn is worked per row. While you do have another yarn going; the other yarn is slipped while you knit this row. The effects are gorgeous. The knitting is relaxing. The boomerang shape is easy to wear! We will be knitting the Radiant Gradient Boomerang. For this, you will need a main color and a contrasting. You can use opposite colors (like black or white) or a self-striping/long-striping colorway and a contrasting color. Variegated yarns are the only yarns that do not work. Still unsure? Bring your yarns and receive help. Materials fee $4. CLAR-1115 / 3 sessions / $35 > 79889

2016 Iowa Wine Trail Wine and Food Pairing
The History of American Comic Books: The Bronze Age
If you talked to anyone who went on the Iowa Wine Tour last spring, you know you missed a great time. So don’t miss out this year! Our yearly tour has something for everyone. This year, we’ll be starting at Eagle Landing Winery, the home of three Best of Shows, four double-golds and three-golds at the 2015 Iowa State Fair and five golds at the 2015 MidAmerican Food and Wine Competition. Our second stop is a new Iowa Wine Trail winery, Empty Nest Winery in Waukon, Iowa. They are a small batch winery and are known for their berry and fruit wines. Be ready for their different and unique flavors. From there, we are heading to Winneshiek Wildberry Winery in Decorah, IA. They feature cranberry, rhubarb and Midwestern grape wines. While lesser known, they have nine acres of beautiful vineyard to explore and stretch your legs. Finally, we top the tour off with a final stop at Toppling Goliath Brewery. Known as one of the top breweries in Iowa, even non-beer lovers will find something here to round out the day. Bring your growler for the ride home! Must be 21 years of age or older.
American comic books turn a different turn in the 1970s and early-80s – called the Bronze Age. DC and Marvel characters further matured and horror and fantasy comics exploded, such as The Tomb of Dracula and Conan the Barbarian. More complex story lines, and amazing artwork, emerged in such titles as The Uncanny X-Men and The New Teen Titans. Independently-produced comics began to change the industry with their new approaches, and DC realigned itself with the classic “Crisis on Infinite Earths”.

The History of American Comic Books: The Golden Age American comic books began in the 1930s, making up rules as they were published. Super-heroes splashed onto the scene at this time with Superman and Batman and the deluge continued into the 1940s with the Flash, Green Lantern, Captain Marvel, Captain American, the Sub-Mariner and others. In the early1950s, EC Comics with its amazing science fiction and horror stories collided head-on with Fredric Wertham and his anti-comic book crusade.

We all dream. Dreams are not only necessary for our physical and mental health, but they are also a form of communication in the spirit realm. Our dreams are much more than the processing of the past day’s events. In fact, there are a multitude of dream types.

In this class, we will talk through the various types of dreams, how to break down and understand the message behind it, along with identifying a plan going forward to help you to recognize and work through the messages presented in your dreams.

Mitigating Stress: A Holistic Approach
Herbal Support for Gastrointestinal Health
Thoughts Become Things: The Art of Changing Your Life
What do you do to relieve stress? Exercise? Massage? Take a break? Pray? Complain? Reach for the snacks? Turn to alcohol? Most people tend to try to manage stress through external methods and single-faceted approaches, but the truth is we are all integrated beings - mind, body, and spirit. This two-part series will have you viewing stress management in a different light: the first night will be focused on proactive techniques to reduce your chances of getting ‘riled’ up by life’s stressors and the second night will be focused on techniques to reduce the amount of stressors in your life.
This class will focus on the different herbs and phytonutrients that can support gastrointestinal health. There will be special focus on herbs that may help with recovery from gluten intolerance. Materials fee $5.
What would it be worth to you to feel you had the power to create whatever results you wanted in business, in relationships, or in life? What would you be willing to give up in order to enjoy those results? Here’s the deal: You already have the power. To tap it, all you need to give up is some limiting beliefs and counterproductive habits of thought. In this course, you’ll learn and begin to apply principles of conscious creation as developed by Mike Dooley, one of the stars of “The Secret”. We’ll explore such topics as the role played by your beliefs and emotions, the necessity of taking action, how you can deliberately use your hunches and dreams, and much more. Thought Become Things: The Art of Changing Your Life will open you up to your own creative power and add a new level of delight to everyday life. Materials fee $5.

End your day with gentle yoga for deep relaxation. This class assists students in calming the body and relaxing the mind. After a busy day sitting at the computer, chasing kiddos, or studying, it can be hard to create time for relaxation. Sleep is an essential part of our health that allows the body to move into its natural state for healing — helping to reverse the effects of stress and anxiety. In this class we work on letting go of our hectic schedules by moving slowly and mindfully through yoga postures, helping to ensure a peaceful night’s rest. Using yoga as a way to relax naturally allows us to wake up refreshed and focused so that we may experience each day with renewed vitality.

The History of American Comic Books: The Bronze Age American comic books turn a different turn in the 1970s and early-80s – called the Bronze Age. DC and Marvel characters further matured and horror and fantasy comics exploded, such as The Tomb of Dracula and Conan the Barbarian. More complex story lines, and amazing artwork, emerged in such titles as The Uncanny X-Men and The New Teen Titans. Independently-produced comics began to change the industry with their new approaches, and DC realigned itself with the classic “Crisis on Infinite Earths”. CLLE-5005 / 1 session / $25 > 79557

American comic books began in the 1930s, making up rules as they were published. Super-heroes splashed onto the scene at this time with Superman and Batman and the deluge continued into the 1940s with the Flash, Green Lantern, Captain Marvel, Captain American, the Sub-Mariner and others. In the early1950s, EC Comics with its amazing science fiction and horror stories collided head-on with Fredric Wertham and his anti-comic book crusade. Travel with us to yesteryear to relive the dawn of American comic books. CLLE-5005 / 1 session / $25 > 79554

Gravestone Art and Symbolism 102
Heather Gudenkauf is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Weight of Silence and These Things Hidden. Heather graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in elementary education, has spent her career working with students of all ages, and continues to work in education as a Title I Reading Coordinator. Join Heather for a live reading from her latest release, Missing Pieces. Tuition includes Heather’s newest book.
This class is a continuation of Gravestone Art and Symbolism 101 (you do not need to take the 101 class to take 102, but it is highly recommended). Where 101 is a gravestone history class, 102 is a how-to class. It will begin with a very brief review of the types of cemeteries (veterans’, private, lodge, ethnic, garden, natural cemeteries) and gravestone symbols. We will cover cemetery etiquette and safety, how to assemble a cemetery research kit, and how to document gravestone records. Methods for photographing gravestones will be reviewed as well as how to perform web searches for graveyards and cemeteries, especially in Iowa. The class will conclude with how to make graveyard and cemetery searches part of fun scenic drives in Iowa.

Join us for six two-hour sessions on gravestone art and symbolism. Cemeteries are like open-air museums. They contain sculptures, family history, artistic compositions, fine craftsmanship and a record of attitudes towards death and dying through inscriptions, epitaphs, motifs, and morphologies. These six sessions will look at American gravestone art primarily from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries to learn about gravestone materials, engravings, symbols, burial practices and cemetery types and how they have changed throughout the years. Using this information, you can discover that local cemeteries give us information on patterns of immigration, emigration, the major impacts of disease (e.g. the influenza pandemic of the late 1890’s or 1918), or on a natural catastrophe specific to a particular community. Learn how to identify gravestones that mark veterans’ of the Mexican War, the Spanish-American War, the Civil War, World War I and World War II. CLLE-8060 / 6 sessions / $69
