Strengths 101

Strengths Quest (SQ) is an approach to organizational, employee and student development that capitalizes and builds on individual strengths. By understanding our talents and applying knowledge and skill we are able to discover and work from our strengths. This can lead to great satisfaction in our work, our leadership and our relationships with colleagues. An electronic survey must be taken prior to attendance at one of the SQ workshops. If you are in need of an SQ access code or other assistance, please contact Pamela Medina pmedina@necc.mass.edu [1].

Clery Act, Bystander & Title IX

Each of us plays a role in increasing safety at NECC.  In order to take steps to a truly safe and comfortable environment, it is essential that we first acknowledge our role as bystanders and learn to become empowered advocates. Although there’s no prescribed way to completely eliminate something from happening, there are tactics that may be helpful in reducing risk on campus.  This training will assist in the development of a practical approach to intervention and help to answer questions regarding reporting incidents during and after they have occurred. Lastly, it will empower you to advocate and intervene confidently, ultimately assisting in creating a safe NECC community.
