Engage in a transformational experience of personal and professional growth with a world class team of emotional intelligence educators. This five-day intensive course prepares educators, trainers, consultants, teachers, managers, and counselors to develop and deliver highly effective EQ learning experiences and make more compelling presentations on EQ.

Five full days of hands-on, dynamic instruction, activities, practical projects, networking, laughter, and learning. This workshop is highly active, brain-based, and experiential. The content is based on 35 years of practical teaching experience and the Self-Science curriculum featured as a model in Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence. Certified Associates are delivering programs in 20 countries and all US states.

You will improve your communication and teaching skills and your understanding of emotional intelligence. The seminar follows Six Seconds' Know Yourself, Choose Yourself, Give Yourself model for learning to develop and apply emotional intelligence. Participants experience an EQ learning environment and learn how to use a range of effective tools that can be adapted to a variety of audiences.
