Thanks a bunch to Waneta Swoyer, my assistant who was able to attend the Childcare Conference with me. We had a great time and of course since she is my mom as well it was even more fun to spend time together!

Ohio Connection Childcare Conference Oct 2008

I would like to thank Amelia Rodgers and the Ohio Connection State Family Childcare Association for a great weekend. I was able to get information out on cpr and other health and safety classes and meet a lot of great people at the same time. Lunch on saturday was just great!

I hope that I can attend again in the future. It was lots of fun!!

Welcome to Training Education Specialty Group (T.E.S.G.)

Hello, My name is Colleen Timko and I am the President & Owner of a small business in Columbus Ohio called T.E.S.G.

I have been teaching health & safety classes for 22 years but in 2002 I took a break from teaching to dedicate my time to a new job position with a large healthcare system here in central ohio. In 2006 as I began to have more time, I decided to start this new little venture.

T.E.S.G. offers Health & Safety Courses to businesses, daycares, clubs and other organizations in the Central Ohio area. We are able to come to your location to teach which makes it convenient for those who need their employees trained!

Check out the Training Education Specialty Group website for course offerings. www.tesg.net

We are also able to teach in most locations of Ohio but travel fees do apply. Call TESG for information on bringing the classes to you.

I will try to update the blog often and let you know of any classes that are scheduled. Although TESG is known for going out to businesses and clubs to teach at their facilities, HeartStart of Central Ohio has been wonderful in giving TESG some classroom space for upcoming classes as well.

TESG's class prices are competitive and hope that your company will keep us in mind for its training needs.

For those of you out there in Doggie Daycare, AKC Clubs, Scouting and more, TESG offers ASHI
PET FIRST AID courses. This class can be customized to meet your needs whether its a 2 hour mini class or a 4 hour in depth class. My love for dogs and rescue makes these pet courses the most fun for me personally. To see these participants sitting through a class to help them in case of a pet emergency makes me feel so good! So many people really love their pets!

TESG has also had pet seminars that included veterinarians and other training such as obedience, rally and conformation. We will post any upcoming dog related events in the future. We have something for everyone!

Colleen
