| How the course works |
| Over the period of this time management 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 cannot 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 enhances the learning process and ensures it is taken back to the workplace. Videos are used to enhance the learning. |
