About this course

Managing time is important to any business, it is our most precious resource, and once it’s gone it can never be recovered. Yet despite this, we’re not very good at using it wisely. It’s estimated that as much as 80% of our time is spent dealing with trivial tasks, or simply wasted as we keep putting off that all-important work we should be doing.

This Time Management training course will equip you with the tools you need to take control over your time so you can spend longer doing the things that really matter, whether that is with time management best practices such as time blocking techniques or time-saving practices. It will teach you how to effectively plan your goals, manage your schedule, and avoid distractions and the pitfalls of procrastination. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to time management so this course offers a number of different tips and strategies for you to choose from, so no matter your working style, there’ll be something for you.

Very pragmatic and practical guidance

A very good session on the things that waste time and how to tackle them. I found the present self and the future self a very good example and explanation

This was valuable training.

This will benefit myself and the team I work with.

Inconsiderate of neurodiversity

I understand that for some, these simple steps can be useful. However, I use many of the methods discussed and I still struggle with time management. I believe I have ADHD and I found the training patronising as it told me what to do that I'm already doing. The training didn't consider how neurodiversity may impact time management skills, or how different abilities might impact how someone is able to carry out tasks. I didn't think it was very inclusive. I think there also needs to be a section that explains how people with neurodiversity, where we can find specific support for our needs, and to explain how people can work with neurodiverse colleagues.

Good reminders

Good basic reminders about how to make the most of my day and setting goals.

inportant skill to master

Great

Relevant, but approach too narrow

Relevant topic, but training more suited to business environments than further education. Staff in education settings may not be afforded same opportunities to work away from main workplaces, cannot avoid disruptions to working days affecting time management performances.

Worthwhile starter on time management.

Very useful tips and advice. Difficult to stick to when running a Construction Site on your own and expected to do everything from Inductions, First Aid, QA, H&S, filing and redesigning various aspects of the project as well as motivate and lead my men out on the site. Will use the activity log and take it from there. Onwards and upwards. Colin
