What You’ll Learn
Today, the world is more complex, competitive, and demanding than ever before. Young people often need to balance school, work, and relationships while at the same time, working and planning for their future. Generation Next will help your teen:
- Build self-confidence
- Enhance their communication skills
- Develop their leadership abilities
- Strengthen and build relationships with peers
- Gain strategies for managing stress and improving attitudes
Why You Want To Learn It
Successful people are not born with the skills needed to excel. Important life skills - building emotional intelligence, developing relationships, managing attitudes, setting, and achieving goals, and building confidence - take practice. Although they may seem like common sense, they need to be learned, developed, and mastered. In this course, we move these concepts from common sense to common practice. The lack of skills in any of these areas can cause needless stress. Building on strengths and skills can squeeze out some of the insecurities and help manage the day-to-day ups and downs more effectively.
