Course Information
Do you find it a challenge to cram all your work tasks into your day? Do you feel overwhelmed, stressed and unable to take a break? Are you plagued by negative thoughts about your ability to do your job? This four-week course is built on a foundation of wellbeing, enabling you to take time out and reflect on what is really causing the problem, revealing, and removing blocks to negative thinking and enabling you to focus your energy in a more positive direction.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:

- Evaluate your current workplace wellbeing, including responsibilities, rewards and challenges
- Select one challenging area to work on and set a SMART goal
- Identify areas of productivity and control
- Practice stress-reduction techniques and evaluate their effectiveness
- Create solutions to minimise time-wasting distractions.
- Implement supportive start and finish routines
- Revise progress and select appropriate adjustments
- Produce an effective work/life balance commitment and progression route
The course includes ‘mini breaks’ to give you time to rest your mind and your body. Through sharing statistics, strategies, discussion and reflection, the course helps you to create your own tailor-made plan to take you forward into a more productive and less stressful work/life balance. The course will be delivered either at one of our community venues, or online.

The community venue will be in a nearby location, where you can meet people face to face and learn together in a suitably equipped classroom setting.

Online courses will be delivered on either Zoom or MS Teams from your own home and learners will need access to a computer, laptop or tablet device with access to the internet.   All devices should have a camera, sound and a microphone so that learners are able to interact with their teacher and peers during the course.  Learners will be sent the join details and links prior to the course. Both of these online platforms can be accessed via an app on a smart phone, tablet or iPad or alternatively via the relevant website.

Activities for the sessions include:
- Active listening and reflective discussion
- Participation in individual and group/team tasks
- Personal reflection and note taking
- Links to recommended websites and apps will be given to aid independent learning.
In order to attend the course, learners should be able to follow verbal and written instructions in English at Entry Level 3 and above.
You will be asked to complete a record of your learning to consolidate your new knowledge. This will be done either by hard copy or online (MS Forms). There will also be worksheets (face to face) and other written exercises. Please ensure that you have a pen and paper/notebook with you.

Using and reflecting on learned knowledge and strategies is essential to your own personal success. It also enables weekly discussions around progress.
Please arrive for your class at least 10 minutes before the start to get set up, meet your teacher and other learners. If the course is online, this gives you a chance to make sure your device is working properly. The class will start on time and latecomers will miss important induction information.
