Frequently asked questions

Who is the Self-Confidence course suitable for?

The Self-Confidence course is suitable for anyone who feels insecure and wants to get more out of themselves. You may recognise yourself in doubts about your abilities, the feeling that there is more in you, or the wish to communicate with others more confidently. No prior education is required. The classroom course works with small groups, so there is room for your personal learning objectives.

How do you work on behavioural change during the Self-Confidence course?

During the Self-confidence course you work on behavioural change with realistic role plays and mutual feedback. You alternate between concrete experience, experimenting with new behaviour, reflection and theory. Methods such as core quadrants, RET and the 4G's help you break through old patterns. Breathing and relaxation exercises are also covered, so that you learn to deal with tension physically.

Which topics are covered during the Self-Confidence course?

During the Self-Confidence course you work on themes such as the difference between sub-assertiveness, assertiveness and aggressiveness, building a realistic self-image, core quadrants and pitfalls, verbal and non-verbal communication, rational thinking through RET and the 4Gs, breathing and relaxation exercises and dealing with criticism. You practise with realistic role plays and receive feedback to help you break patterns.

Do you receive a certificate after the Self-Confidence course?

Yes, on completion of the Self-Confidence course you will receive a certificate of participation from Learnit. This certificate confirms that you took an active part in both course days, including the role plays and feedback exercises. The certificate is a useful addition to your CV and shows that you invest in your personal development and communication skills.

Can the Self-Confidence course also be taken in-company?

Yes, the Self-Confidence course can also be taken in-company. The programme is then tailored to the learning objectives, practical experience and prior knowledge of your team. Individual intake interviews take place beforehand to sharpen the content. The classroom course lasts 2 days for scheduled courses; for in-company rates you will receive a tailored quotation.

What is the difference between the Self-Confidence course and assertiveness training?

There is overlap, but the emphasis differs. An assertiveness course focuses primarily on behaviour: how to stand up for yourself, how to say no, how to set boundaries. Learnit's Self-Confidence course goes a step deeper and works on the self-image underlying that behaviour. You examine the causes of a lack of self-confidence, work with core quadrants on your qualities and pitfalls, and use RET and the 4G model to develop a positive mental attitude. Assertiveness is covered as well, including the distinction between sub-assertive, assertive and aggressive behaviour. The course lasts 2 days and is taught in the classroom. Choose this course if you not only want to show different behaviour, but also want to build a firmer foundation beneath that behaviour.

How do I know whether the Self-Confidence course suits me, or whether I would be better off choosing something else?

The Self-Confidence course suits you if you notice that uncertainty is holding you back in everyday situations: not daring to speak up in meetings, difficulty setting boundaries, or the feeling that you are getting less out of yourself than you could. You work on insight and behaviour using role plays, core quadrants and RET (Rational Effectiveness Training). Choose something else if you want to train a specific skill such as presenting or negotiating. In that case, those more targeted courses are more effective. If you are dealing with deeper psychological problems such as anxiety disorders or burnout, guidance from a psychologist is more appropriate. Not sure? During the intake beforehand we look together at whether your learning objectives match.

What does the Self-Confidence course actually give me compared with a self-help book or online videos?

A self-help book or online video gives you theory and insights, but you do not actually practise with your own behaviour. In Learnit's classroom-based Self-Confidence course you work with realistic role plays drawn from your own day-to-day practice and receive direct feedback from the trainer and fellow participants. This makes old patterns visible and open to discussion. Among other things, you work with core quadrants, RET (Rational Effectiveness Training) and the 4 G's. Breathing and relaxation exercises are also covered. If you opt for a book or e-learning, it remains a matter of knowledge. If you opt for this classroom-based course, you experience the effect of new behaviour directly in a small group. That demonstrably increases the chance of real behavioural change.
