How will this course help you?
Over the three weeks our Get Ready Step Forward course will help you to look at your emotional needs, help you to identify your positive qualities and transferable skills. For you to understand your rights and responsibilities, to become more assertive and it will also help you to understand different types of behaviours (passive, assertive, aggressive).
