“The course is fantastic. I like being able to pause, play and rewind! The content is easily digestible, I love the prompts to relate it back to your workplace and it has a really good flow. I have done a lot of self-directed courses throughout my education and this one was really great, easy to follow, and well thought out. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to improve how they manage performance.”

Let’s Get Started
How the program works
Each week the participants will complete a self-directed online module that covers the core concepts of the program. Then, participants will take part in a webinar with an experienced leader and facilitator who will reinforce learning, answer any questions, and practice applying the concepts from that module with the whole group.
Over the duration of the program, there are course check ins and knowledge to make sure participants are getting to grips with the content and able to apply it in practice.
We keep group sizes small so that the group can interact and learn from one another and there is plenty of space for questions, discussion and individual feedback.
Time commitment
Participants should expect to spend about 2.5 hours a week in learning; 90 minutes a week completing the online module, and an hour of participation in the weekly webinar.
Each month participants will have a check in and knowledge check quiz to complete so we can make sure the learning is sticking. To pass, participants must attend 80% of the program, and achieve 80% in the knowledge check quizzes.
