Introduction to Mind Maps Course
We use writing as a tool to help us think, to help us concentrate, as a memory aid and as a way of communicating. Yet conventional linear-style writing often fails to engage all of the brain's capabilities, limiting what we can achieve. Mind maps aim to challenge and correct these failings. Our Introduction to Mind Maps Course will introduce you to mind maps and in a step-by-step manner show you how to use them in a way that is engaging, fun and which will help you get the most out of your brain.

Analytical Thinking Course
We have so many decisions to make, whether that is about what course of action we plan to take, what we believe to be true or what view we should have on political or moral matters. Further, there are many people who want to influence our behaviour or beliefs, often for their own ends. How can we know whether we are making the right decision? Very few people receive any formal education in how to think analytically about these situations. Our Analytical Thinking Course will remedy this. It will help you improve your ability to assess situations, make better decisions, and avoid mistakes in your thinking. Founded in logic, it will show you in a step-by-step-manner how to work through any line of thinking to ensure that you arrive at the correct conclusion. Click here to find out more

Strategic Thinking Course
This course completes our trio of "thinking" courses. The need to think strategically is not just for people in business or the military. The ability to think strategically is about finding flexible ways to achieve your goals and as such it is essential across all aspects of life. The common elements in strategic thinking are that it applies to complex situations with unknown factors and variables, often involving other people who may be co-operating with us or competing against us. As such, the ability to think strategically is a useful tool in business, but it is also useful in any situation where detailed planning is necessary to navigate the complexities of life and where the consequences of making a mistake might be high. Our Strategic Thinking Course will provide you with the tools you need. Click here to find out more |
