There are a number of ways to do this, one of which are Lunch N Learn Programs for each of the administrative topics which can be accomplished via teleconference with e-mailed Power Point handouts to keep expenses under control. Another method would be to hire someone on retainer for the year to do an initial conference and provide updates electronically as needed (probably quarterly). As far as new interventions, establish a budgeted amount for the department and look for online or teleconference courses. Good luck.
