Just like buses, nothing for a while, then they all come at once!  Two yesterday, another two today.

Added to our business suite of courses, our Developing Teamwork course is all about building stronger relationships within your team by getting to know each other better and creating the foundations for an exceptionally high performing group of people.  The course costs £35 and takes about an hour.

The other new course today is the Principals of Performance Management.  In any organisation, the traditional model of strict command and control wastes a significant amount of time and money.  Mutual trust, employee motivation and readiness to perform can easily be undermined. Performance management, on the other hand, offers a different, much more effective approach.  £35 and it will likely take you an hour and a half to complete.

It’s a busy week for new courses going live on the website.  

Today sees our Allergen Awareness course become available.  This course covers general allergies, food allergies and food intolerances and explain the differences between them.  It covers the 14 allergens controlled by legislation along with food additives and how they can trigger allergic reactions.  It takes a detailed look at the symptoms of food allergies and takes in the wider picture discussing the current theories of why rates are increasing.  It then finishes off by covering practical steps that can be taken to reduce the risk from allergens and also what steps can be taken both internally and externally to monitor the control measures.  This course is £35 and likely to take a couple of hours.

Also today our course for Epilepsy Awareness is there.  This course will give you an overview of epilepsy.  It lists the methods of diagnosis, what a seizure is and how the brain can be affected.  It will introduce some possible seizure triggers and describe what to do when someone has a seizure.  It will also discuss some of the treatments offered to people with epilepsy and provide practical advice on what you can do if you witness someone having a seizure.  The course is £25 and likely to take as little as an hour to complete.
