Life Tools 2015 – 2016. Who are the Talks for?

The Life Tools talks are for any member of the University community who would like to attend: foundation students, undergraduates, postgrads, home and international students, members of staff – all are welcome to attend. This year’s programme offers a variety of subjects designed to enable you to:

– manage your academic demands effectively;

– improve your resilience when life becomes challenging;

– enhance your personal wellbeing.

Who will be giving the talk?

All our talks are given by experienced University staff who work in Student Wellbeing. They have expertise in personal development and their talks are designed to help you achieve your potential and increase your knowledge base.

How will the session run?
The speaker will give a presentation for about 30 – 45 minutes. This will be followed by a chance to ask questions. Copies of material from the presentations are handed out and if you wish to find out more about the topic you can speak with the tutor after the talk. Information from the talks will also be available on our Blackboard site.

How many people can attend the talks?

There is plenty of space, so all are welcome!

Do I have to book?

There is no need to book for the talks, just turn up at the location specified next to each talk. Most of the talks are in the Carrington or Palmer buildings.

Is there a charge?

There is no charge for attendance.
