Cleanin' Up Around Town

You may notice as you walk down the street or through the back alley's that things are looking a little cleaner!

In celebration of Earth Day 2010, the students at the Carnduff Education Complex set to the streets to lend a helping hand. The entire student body participated in a town wide clean-up this morning. They gathered garbage and debris that has been left following the disappearance of that lovely winter snow! What a great way to help out the community!

THANK YOU CEC STUDENTS for contributing to the cleanliness of the community...your work is much appreciated!


Happy Earth Day Everyone!

Service Best Training

We were fortunate to have hosted a Service Best training workshop in Carnduff yesterday. We had a total of 30 participants from various businesses and a variety of communities. We had 11 businesses represented from Carnduff, which was great to see.

Service Best is a nationally accredited Customer Service training program. The workshop addresses how to give your best service, knowing your customers and the different types you may have, service recovery and communication including dealing with unhappy customers, the importance of having a Service Best Attitude, what service professionals do and a little bit of everything in between.

It was a very valuable workshop that left everyone with ideas of what they implement into the workplace to increase the level of service they provide to their customers and co-workers.
For more information on this program, please contact the office at 482-3503.

A little something to think about...........
How people interpret the true meaning of what you say is done through words, body language and tone and breaks down as follows:
Words = 7%
Body Language = 55%
Tone = 38%
