Assertiveness (8 CPD Hours)


Have you ever felt intimidated by others? How many times have you told yourself that you could have done better when handling a conversation only to repeat the same mistakes again? Do you like to stay out of conflicts and keep to yourself? Do people take advantage of you?

This course is designed to help participants understand how to express themselves assertively in order to get what they want. In particular, they will learn the differences between aggressive and assertive behaviour, correct body language, what to say to get results, how to request, how to criticise and how to boost their confidence. The course contains a large number of practical exercises designed to increase the retention of the skills participants learn in this course.
