There is also an alternative in the form of a classroom-based full-day training. During this classroom training day (morning and afternoon) you will work on your personal job profile and several, individual, practical exercises (including Nirac and Eisenhower) are possible. You can find this classroom training here: Planning and organising in order to improve your time management 

This online course is taken on your computer. Your learning path consists of three steps that complement each other.

Step 1

Your course begins on Karibu, your online learning platform. You can go through this learning session at your own pace, wherever and whenever you like.

Note: Completing this step is required to proceed.

Step 2: Online class

During this step, you will meet your fellow participants – usually six to twelve people – via Zoom. Everyone can see and hear each other, enabling conversations, interaction, and collaboration. This way, you learn with and from each other, based on the insights from Step 1.

Step 3

This learning session takes place again on Karibu. You can also go through this step at your own pace, wherever and whenever you like.

Step 1 (about 1h)

2 weeks before the start of the online session, the training already starts in Karibu. You will already get to know the trainer a little better and you can post your expectations, discover your personal motivations and, by watching a video, we will question you about writing down the priorities and main tasks in your job. We will work with the results of these exercises during the online class.

Step 2: online class (3h)

Time for action! Your trainer will coach you through the basics of time management and help you with your self-management. Together with the feedback from your fellow participants, we will look for strategies and tips that will inspire you towards healthy time management, commitment and satisfaction with your tasks.

• Our vision, definition and principles of time management
• Time management is life management, and it means taking control of your time better
• How do your personal drivers impact your own time management?
• Is multitasking more productive than single-tasking?
• How to plan using the NIRAC method
• How to deal with time-wasters
• The course of the further training in step 3 (Karibu)
• Your personal development plan

Step 3 (about 1h)

Karibu remains the place to be, even after the online class. You will find additional inspirational information in the form of 7 theoretical sheets and a TED talk on procrastination. You can find the full syllabus there and we end with a quiz where you can test your acquired knowledge. In Karibu, you can share your experiences and questions with fellow participants for 6 months after the online training.
