Please note:

Sessions 1, 2 and 10 are primarily aimed at individuals who intend to complete the full Manager Development Program and earn a certificate. In this case, workshops 1 and 2 should be completed before any of the others and session 10 should be completed last and will be scheduled at a time to suit each individual participant.

Workshops 3 through 9 may be completed in any order and each can stand alone for individuals who wish to select from this menu of workshops rather than attend all of them.
