Small Group Skill Development

Our small group skill development programs are written with specific skills in mind. The skills are explicitly taught by modelling the skills and rely on a multimodal approach to learning. Visual aides and audio support such as videos are utilised, with repetitive exercises to ensure that the skill is reinforced and committed to long term memory. Participants have the opportunity to practice the skills during the session and as it is in small group setting, participants can support each other in their learning.

Each session focuses on one part of the skill and allows the participant to build on their learning as they progress through the program.

Individual sessions are available separately, to compliment the group sessions, if an individual feels they would like some extra support outside of the group setting.

Learning in a small group environment means a more personal approach to learning, while incorporating a social element which can be very beneficial and adds the element of peer learning.
