Due to the overwhelming requests for personnel management technical assistance, the Child Nutrition Unit (CNU), Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) is requesting that district Child Nutrition Directors attend a Human Resource Management Workshop on October 23-24, 2003 at the Agora Conference Center, 705 Siebenmorgen Road, in Conway, Arkansas.
