Short Course about Learning Skills
This 20-hour course begins by explaining how people learn then continues to show you practical ways that learning can be improved.
People do not all learn the same way. Some are more sensory than others, and some are information processors, while others are information collectors. When you understand learning and the type of learner you are; you are then able to approach learning in a more effective way. This course helps you to that understanding.
Many people spend a significant part of their life studying, in their youth and often well into adulthood. Parents devote a lot of their time pondering decisions about their children’s education and study, and perhaps even more time either directly or indirectly trying to facilitate better study habits and opportunities for their children.
Our 20 hour courses are self paced and will help you understand a topic in a short amount of time. You can work through the course when you like- test yourself with mini-tests along the way. There are extra case studies or research you can undertake if you would really like to get into the topic. Once you have completed the lessons and self assessment tasks, there is a final exam undertaken online- you can then download your personalised certificate.
