About Core Learning, Inc. Founded in 2010 by Stephanie Appel, the mission of Core Learning, Inc. is to provide education and consulting services to enhance career and life.
In an effort to be more eco-friendly and conscientious, Core Learning, Inc. is phasing in the use of more "green" products. Many of the plates, utensils, napkins, hot/cold cups, and even garbage bags used for future trainings will be recycled, recyclable, biodegradable and/or compostable! We are doing our part to reduce our carbon footprint.
As a Social Worker for over ten years, Stephanie Appel has held positions in organizations such as Common Ground, the Anti-Defamation League, Boys & Girls Republic, the Michigan Humane Society and Jewish Family Service of Metropolitan Detroit. Diverse experience includes crisis intervention counseling, legal clinic coordination, student internship supervision, facilitation of anti-bias trainings, creation and implementation of all aspects of a volunteer services program, management of participant recruitment for a large-scale inaugural fundraising walk, community outreach and marketing, and development and growth of a professional continuing education program to serve Social Workers and Addiction Professionals.
