Those who attended enjoyed the food and the commitment to detail that was made in the selection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos to Lori Hodek: <\/strong>Lori Hodek did an excellent job facilitating the Embrace the Dream campus events. She held collaborative and informative meetings, maintained critical documents and spreadsheets, and provided necessary follow-through.<\/p>\n<p>Her coordination with community partners, faculty &amp; staff made the outstanding variety and quality of events possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos to the Nursing faculty: <\/strong>Congratulations to the nursing faculty, NLEX pass rates (ADN: 95.74%; PN: 90.90%) for 2021 were exceptional!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos to Hans VanSumeren, John Lutchko, Phil McCuien, Brian Sweeney, Cindy Deemer, Cathryn Claerhout, Jordan Smith and Georgenia Hromada:<\/strong> Kudos to Hans and John for delivering marine technology courses to the Yellow River Conservancy Technical Institute (China). Hans and John provided livestream coursework on ROVs and hydrographic surveying. Students then put these skills to practice during classwork and lab exercises on their home campus.<\/p>\n<p>Kudos to Phil and Brian for delivering construction-related courses to the construction trades program at Yellow River Conservancy Technical Institute (China). NMC provides education around wood framing and finishing that is not available at their institution. Students supplemented their online learning with hands-on practice at their home institution.<\/p>\n<p>Due to a 13 hour time difference, both the marine and construction courses had to be delivered late at night, sometimes well past midnight in order to accommodate the learners in China. They also had to complete the training before the Chinese New Year, which put added stress on the instructors. A big thank you also needs to be extended to Cathryn Claerhout and Cindy Deemer for admitting and registering students, Jordan Smith and Georgenia Hromada for scheduling students, and others who supported contracts and delivery. It was a true team effort. This is the fourth year of this partnership.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos to Elizabeth Sonnaband, Laura Matchett and Ed Bailey:<\/strong> Kudos to Elizabeth Sonnaband, Laura Matchett, and Ed Bailey for their work in creating the Workforce Development series, the program is a set of courses designed to meet the specific needs of the region&#8217;s employer and a direct response to the work TC Connect Skills Gap Survey completed in late 2021.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-51670\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nmc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AdobeStock_589564120.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"71\" height=\"104\" \/>Experts suggest maintaining an &#8220;attitude of gratitude&#8221; increases positivity for yourself and for others.
