About this course

Emotional Intelligence is a set of emotional and social skills that collectively establish how well you perceive and express yourself, maintain social relationships and cope with challenges. It's not just a passing management fad, in fact it is based on a great body of data, based on studies of tens of thousands of working people taken from a wide range of industries.

The research shows which qualities make a star performer and while Emotional Intelligence isn't the sole predictor of performance potential, it has been proven to be a key indicator in this area. This course will introduce the concept of emotional intelligence and look at how you can use it in effective and meaningful ways. It will examine the difference between emotional intelligence and IQ and dispel some of the myths surrounding emotional intelligence. It contains a sections on the advantages and disadvantages of using emotional intelligence and considers the biological purpose for emotions and how best to manage them. Finally it will highlight the role played by emotions in the workplace and provide practical advice including tips for using emotional intelligence to deal effectively with emotions in situations that can arise in the workplace.

Where to go next

For candidates that want to add more qualifications to their CV our Leadership Skills course is ILM approved and can provide them with another recognised management qualification. For candidates specifically interested in developing resilient teams our Developing Teamwork course goes hand in hand with this one and expands on some of the key ideas and how they can be applied to teams. For candidates new to management roles Managing Meetings would be a great next step although working through any of our range of Business Skills courses would be valuable.

Training is not always the answer. A course covers awareness. Where the law asks for a competent person, a written risk assessment or a system you can evidence, training on its own will not close the gap. Tell us what you are trying to satisfy and we will say plainly whether this course does it.

Questions

Before you enrol

How do I book this course?

Buy it online and the learner gets their login straight away. If you are booking for more than one person, or for several different courses, send us the list and we will quote for the group rather than charging person by person.

How long do learners have to complete it?

It is self paced, so learners can stop and pick up where they left off. The time shown is video content and does not count thinking time on the questions.

Do learners get a certificate?

Yes. A certificate is issued once the learner passes, and you can download records for everyone you have enrolled.

Is the price per person?

Yes, per learner and excluding VAT. Group rates are better than the published price, so ask before booking a team.

Is eLearning enough on its own?

For awareness it often is. Where a duty needs a competent person, a risk assessment or a documented system, training alone will not close it. If you are not sure which side of that line you are on, ask us before buying.
