How the course works
Delegates complete a time log of their activities, for a period of 5 days prior to attending the course.
Over the period of the course, delegates identify their specific time management problems and a range of solutions designed to give them greater control over their time management.
Delegates carry out a number of case studies and exercises, designed to show them what causes problems with time management and to identify those problems they can solve and learn how to deal with them.
Objectives are agreed at the beginning of the course and reviewed at the end, when an action plan is prepared. This encourages the learning is followed up, back in a work situation.
