Brain Training: Working Smarter and More Productively course: average 8.5 from 2 reviews

“Extremely practical course, which I found very useful. My thoughts are much better organised and I make better use of my memory through mindmapping. Speed reading is mainly a matter of practice, but the tools you are given certainly make it easier.”

C. Sam-Sin

“An enjoyable and instructive course in which you are given techniques in a varied way to learn speed reading and mind mapping. Of practical value for work and private life.”

"I was offered private training as an alternative to group training. That left plenty of room to address my own learning objectives. A very enjoyable and interesting course on how the brain works in relation to working and learning more efficiently. Definitely recommended!"

Yes. Before the course we discuss with you what the group can already do, where things go wrong in practice and what should be different afterwards. The trainer uses examples and exercises from your own work.

How large can the group be?

That depends on the course. For a skills course we prefer to work with a small group, so that everyone can really practise. If more people are involved, we schedule several groups or set up a fixed programme.

What does Brain Training: Working Smarter and More Productively in-company cost?

How long does the Brain Training: working smarter and more productively course last and what does it cost?
The Brain Training: working smarter and more productively course lasts one day. You attend the course in a classroom setting in a small group, guided by an experienced trainer. During this course day you learn how your brain works, how you learn faster and how you process information more effectively. Course materials and a certificate of participation are included. For the current price, see the course page.
Who is the Brain Training: Work Smarter and More Productively course suitable for?
The course is intended for managers and staff who process a great deal of information every day and need to acquire new knowledge quickly. Think of professionals who want to bring structure to a busy working day, strengthen their memory and learn to read faster. No prior knowledge is required. In a single classroom course day you work with practical techniques such as mindmapping and speed reading.
Which techniques do you learn in the Brain Training: working smarter and more productively course?
In this course you learn four concrete techniques: mind mapping to structure complex information, study techniques for learning faster with better results, memory techniques for remembering names and numbers, and speed reading to double your reading speed. You also gain insight into how your brain works, along with practical tips for making better use of your brain capacity at the office.
Is any prior knowledge required for the Brain Training: working smarter and more productively course?
No, no prior knowledge is required for the Brain Training: Working Smarter and More Productively course. You can join straight away, regardless of your level of education or work experience. The classroom course starts with how the brain works and builds from there towards techniques such as mind mapping, speed reading and memory training. An intake takes place beforehand so that your learning objectives can be incorporated into the programme.
Do you receive a certificate after the Brain Training: work smarter and more productively course?
Yes, on completion of the Brain Training: Working Smarter and More Productively course you will receive a certificate of participation from Learnit. The certificate confirms that you attended the classroom course and were introduced to techniques such as mind mapping, speed reading, memory techniques and effective information processing.
Can you take the Brain Training: working smarter and more productively course in-company?
Yes, the Brain Training: Working Smarter and More Productively course can also be delivered in-company. The programme is then tailored to the learning objectives and working practice of your team. An intake takes place beforehand to customise the content. For an in-company programme you will receive a quotation on request.
What do I get from the classroom Brain Training that I cannot get from a book or YouTube video about speed reading and mindmapping?
The difference lies in practising under guidance and receiving immediate feedback. A book tells you how mind mapping or speed reading works. In the classroom course you apply the techniques straight away to your own work material and see what effect they have. You experiment with behaviour, reflect and link theory to your own practice. The trainer corrects your eye movements when speed reading, for example, or helps you structure a mind map for a current project. You also work in a group, which means you practise techniques on recognisable work situations. Self-study gives you knowledge. This course aims at changing behaviour. Choose self-study if you are looking for theoretical depth. Choose this course if you want to internalise concrete techniques. Course material is included.
How do I know whether this brain training course suits me, or would I be better off taking a time management course?
The choice depends on where your problem lies. A time management course focuses on planning, prioritising and managing your diary. This brain training focuses on the cognitive side: how your brain processes, retains and learns information. You are given four concrete techniques: mind mapping to structure information, speed reading to increase your reading speed, memory techniques for names and numbers, and study techniques for concentration and motivation. Choose brain training if you have a lot of reading to get through, need to absorb new knowledge quickly or have to remember complex information. Choose time management if you mainly struggle with your diary, deadlines and tasks. The course is classroom-based. No prior knowledge is required.
