Mock interview, tips from employers. This workshop provides you with the unique opportunity to meet live with a panel of employers for candid conversation about the best ad worst practices with resumes and interviews.

This 2-Day class is the first in our Financial Series. 

Financial Tools will introduce you to the basic financial management principles that all small business owners should know. Participants will walk away with the tools to understand the basics of business finance so they can make informed decisions on how to organize and manage their business finances.  Topics discussed are record keeping; bookkeeping; accounting; creating, understanding and using financial statements and reports.

Class will be held virtually via videoconferencing platform, and be held over two sessions in two weeks, for a total of 5 hours of training.

This is a virtual class that will take place via Zoom. Videoconferencing details will be sent upon registration. Please email [email protected] with any questions or concerns.

We recommend following up the Financial Tools Class with the Intro to QuickBooks Online class. Take advantage of a Financial Series Pass to attend both Financial Tools and QuickBooks Online for a discount.

In this series, we will write about encounters with the natural world through workshops in poetry, fiction, and autobiography. Drawing from the experiences you bring to class, and using a naturalist’s eye for observation and detail, you will capture encounters with vast mountain ranges and lush forests, garden insects and backyard bears, moon phases and songbird migrations. We will read example texts and practice writing prompts to deepen our relationship with nonhuman nature. We will also discuss how “eco” writing supports climate activism, environmental justice, conservation, and related issues.”

Spring creative writing workshops with Fairview author and teacher, Dr. Beth Keefauver, will be offered the last Thursdays of March, April and May.  The classes may be taken individually or as a series. The April class will focus on Eco Fiction.

Registration is required for these classes.  For more information call 828-250-6484.

This class is sponsored in part by the Friends of Fairview Library.
