Hello, I'm Sondra. I am retired from the State of Georgia Department of Corrections. I have a Master's Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Human Resources. I also have a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and a BS in Criminal Justice.
I was a substitute teacher for over 17 years and I trained correctional staff in many different topics such as: Communications, legal issues, mental health, special management, report writing, etc. I enjoy teaching others in the areas of law enforcement and criminal justice as well as business administration and management of the people side of business.
I have taken many courses independently to learn how to speak in a public forum. As a substitute teacher I learned how to gain the attention of the class and how to guide the students through the lesson plans for the day and/or achieve the goals set for each period of instruction. I have learned many tricks of the trade to calm the nerves and present the information properly in a way that not dry, dull or boring. I draw from my experiences on the job and in life to use as examples to help make the point.
I have used Microsoft, PowerPoint and Microsoft Word all during my business career and in my college courses. I have used Excel in some of the statistic courses as well, although I am not as proficient in Excel as I am in the other programs.
I was raised in a business that flourished for many years before my family retired from the business. I have managed many offices such as law firms and as a government employee I learned about budgets, grants, business writing, communications and problem solving. I have learned how to train a team to get the job done and network within the department to promote in position, special projects and training. I learned to work with the Federal and State court systems in Georgia.
