ACT Course Live (online)

ACT Live - Learning with your Tribe

On-line Courses

The ACT Live format takes advantage of modern technology and brings the students and tutors together via the magic of the internet. As a format, it is tried and tested and has gained acceptance as part of learning, whether it is at universities, the work place or at home. 

At ACT we find the virtual environment a useful place, to not only do our trainings, but to connect with students all over the world.  As long as there is an internet connection and willingness then there is a place to learn, share, support, encourage and be together.

In-Person Face to Face courses

We also run face to face courses. If you prefer this format let us know in the booking form.

Benefits of learning together

We used the word tribe in the title of this page because, as humans we are better as a tribe than individuals.  There are tangible benefits in being a tribe of learners these are;

  • The benefits of being part of a group of like minded people.
  • We benefit from lots of different perspectives (e.g. age, experience, knowledge, cultural differences etc.).
  • Shared motivation.
  • Shared accountability (e.g. buddy system).
  • Shared solution finding capability.
  • Shared support.
  • Shared creativity.

As Ken Robinson the famous educator said:  “Most great Learnings come from Groups. Collaboration is the stuff of GROWTH”  

All these elements create a rich learning environment where we can all learn, prosper and succeed. Together we will learn how  to:

  • Develop a vision for your future.
  • Be clear about the steps you need to take.
  • Know how to motivate yourself.
  • Overcome what has been holding you back.
  • Know the secrets of successful people.
  • Get rid of your limiting beliefs.
  • Commit to yourself and to your goals.
  • Meet other like-minded people.
  • Take time out for yourself.
The ACT live learning format is also in line with Joseph Campbell’s “Hero’s Journey” metaphor where the hero (in this case you the student) calls on mentors, guides, friends and other sources of support to help navigate their particular journey.
 
So allow yourself to feel confident on entering the journey with us at ACT and with your fellow students, your journey into the the adventure of learning, change and discovery.

Course Content

Here is an outline of the themes we explore in each module.  We will share with you some key principles and then encourage you to apply these new ideas to your own personal goals.

Using the Wheel of Life we will “take a step back” and review what is going well, and what we might like to change or develop. We will establish a benchmark against which progress can be measured and introduce tools and techniques for creating a compelling vision

We have the vision, now we will focus on the steps to get there.  We will share a model for setting goals in a way that maximises your chances of success by making it really compelling and developing your motivation to take ACTion.

What impact is your emotional state having on your ability to achieve your goals or make the changes you want to make? Would you like to have more control? we will look at simple techniques for generating positive states such as confidence and resourcefulness.

what are the stories you tell yourself? What language do you use when you think about your goals? How can you develop a positive internal dialogue to keep you on the right track?

This week we will take stock and introduce a powerful model for reviewing what additional resources you need.  We will focus on developing resilience and a growth mindset as well as examining the beliefs you have around your vision and your goals. We will share methods for transforming limiting beliefs into positive messages.

Often, after the initial flurry of action, motivation can start to wane – this is when understanding what motivates us, and what doesn’t can really help.  It is also important to appreciate that we are all different – why one person’s motivator may be another person’s de-motivator.  The key here is in understanding yourself and developing strategies that work for you.

Finally, it’s always good to pause, reflect and celebrate the distance already travelled.  We will review progress, celebrate success and start to plan (and commit to) next steps.
