ASSERTIVENESS
& COMMUNICATION SKILLS,
TIME MANAGEMENT,
CONFIDENCE BUILDING & FINDING YOUR DIRECTION |
Amethyst
has worked with the Women's Enterprise Project [Janet
Brightmore and Sue Scholes] and High Peak Council for
Voluntary Service to run courses on the above topics in
village venues. All of them were led by Jen Bower. A total
of 33 women attended, and the three daytime courses had
creches for pre-school children. Here are some of the
comments from those who attended:
I usually find that however interesting I fall asleep
after lunch and you kept me with you all day.
A really good session - learnt new skills
The entire course was invaluable and I already notice
a positive change
Gave me confidence. Brilliant - hope there's a follow-on.
Great to have a chance to bounce things off other people
in similar circumstances.
Made me realise what I am doing is great!
Tutor was very good at working at our level of thinking.
The childcare was excellent.
We plan to
set up two short courses in November, led by Jen Bower,
one in Bakewell in the evening and one in Waterhouses
in the daytime, jointly organised with the Women's Enterprise
Project co-ordinators [Sue Scholes and Janet Brightmore].
The topic for both will be communication skills and assertiveness
for women, and they will both run for 4 weeks at two hours
per week.
