CPD Developing Behaviour and Attitudes for Life and Work (Self Development)

Course Overview

Key soft skills that we typically develop during our education such as revision techniques, learning processes, critical thinking and long-term memory can all help you continue to succeed in a workplace setting.

These key skills and behaviours are just as valuable in employment because many areas of business improvement like process inefficiencies, management and finances can be improved by using skills such as analysis and critical thought. Because of this, employers value and seek out candidates who have demonstrated these core soft skills and behaviours.

This auto-marked and fully online essentials programme is especially well-suited towards colleges and will help individuals boost their general self-development in preparation for life beyond education.
