Hi all,
I'm hoping you can help settle a recent [friendly] debate with a colleague: When hiring your front-line education staff to teach programs (i.e. classes; for us that's a small army of part timers), how many of you hire for education/presentation/performance background vs science background (recognizing that both is ideal!).
Thanks in advance!
Jamie Alonzo
