Please note the course consists of several sessions, and you should be able to attend all of them.

Study commitment

No preparation will be required before starting the programme. Yet, participants will have to fill out several questionnaires between sessions. Also, they will be invited to carry out some small tasks and observe themselves (and others) regarding leadership skills. All these assignments will be announced on due course during the program.
