How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?

I feel there are now more tools in my arsenal to make lifelong learning a habit.
I'll be sharing these with customers and hopefully enriching their lives in the process.

Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
You can be more connected through the Internet that I thought. I never thought of the Internet as away to build community-now I can see the possibilities

What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?
More time to do the task and having a guru at each branch who's already done the program to be a trainer or go to person.

And, last but not least…

If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again chose to participate?
I'm so there-sign me up
