Please note numbers are strictly limited and places will be allocated on a ‘first in, best dressed’ policy.

You are able to find out more information on the content of each session and Register your desired attendance in your myMonash portal. If you are too late and the event is full you will be placed on a waiting list. If you cannot attend an event you have Registered for, please cancel and your fellow student will be bumped from the Wait list to enable them to attend.

Please note the Assertiveness and Public Speaking sessions are both ‘two-parters’; do not Register if you cannot attend both as there is a take home practice task for presentation the following week, in order to fully benefit and practice the skills taught.

I hope you feel these training sessions will come in very useful in both professional and personal life situations. The faculty hopes you find them of benefit.
