Course Feedback
Excellent – very professional. Today was a great way to identify what my key stressors are, identify what my goals in life are & to take steps to achieve these and to reduce the stressors that are preventing me achieving goals.
This is a comprehensive course and should be promoted more. All parts of it were excellent, providing tools which will be easy to apply in the workplace. The facilitator was friendly, knowledgeable and understanding.
An excellent course. I found it amazing that issues I’ve been carrying for years are so easily pinpointed and aligned with strategies to deal with them.
An excellent course and an excellent investment in time that I will benefit from as well as my work environment.
I learnt so many ways to manage stress and the process for balancing work and personal. Helped my set goals around my values and what’s most important in my life.
Really opened my eyes, I feel I now get the whole stress thing and have the tools to use in both personal and my work situation. If you only do one course this year, then this is a must for everyone!
The problem solving and stress prevention strategies will help me to take action to avoid becoming stressed, before it’s too late.
