Washingtoner/10248578

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Washingtoner -- The workings of the California state government can be mysterious and intimidating to non-participants, as well as to experienced participants. However, ignoring what happens in Sacramento can be a costly decision for individuals and every type of organization in the state.

"All Californians are affected by decisions made in Sacramento. Capitol Seminars' training enables attendees to understand the process and promotes effective participation in ways that help ensure more favorable outcomes," said Ray LeBov, Capitol Seminars' founder and CEO.

Until recently, Capitol Seminars prime focus has been on training individuals. Success in that sector has created a high demand for custom sessions. "Shifting our focus to custom trainings for groups and organizations will enable us to have a broader and greater impact," said LeBov.
