Personal Development ProgrammeThis programme is run in conjunction with Action Education and serves as the first step in the journey towards becoming a counsellor on the Youthline Helpline, but people may choose to attend this as a stand-alone course for their own personal growth and to improve their self awareness and communication skills (and to have a really interesting experience and meet lots of great people).
It is a lively and varied programme, using experiential activities, games, discussions and a bit of interesting theory to give you lots of opportunities to find out more about yourself and build better communication and relationship-building skills as well. It is also great for helping you learn more about working in a team, managing difference and conflict, building self esteem and confidence, goal setting and trust. Personal Development is open to all people 17 years and over. |
