Courses of Action

1/ The Science of Well-Being

You’ll Learn: how to increase your own happiness and build more productive habits through theory and understanding, as well as applying research-based strategies.

Duration: 19 hours

Accreditation: This course is offered by Yale University. Once you’ve finished the course, you can choose to buy a certificate for $49 (about R900).

Why Enrol: Australian researchers found that when people developed a new habit, not only did they reap the benefits of that habit, but they increased their willpower and self-control and they began implementing better behaviours in other areas of their lives. It’s time to train your mind like you would your biceps! coursera.org

2/ Strengthen Your LinkedIn Network & Brand

You’ll Learn: strategies and tactics for effective networking both in-person and online. You’ll also learn how to craft an elevator pitch, optimise your LinkedIn profile and improve your job search.

Duration: 1.5 hours

Accreditation: This course is brought to you by Grow with Google. You won’t receive a certificate.

Why Enrol: Surveys conducted by the Society for Human Resource Management showed that employers are increasingly using LinkedIn to search for job candidates. And another study in the Journal of Vocational Behaviour found that your frequency of LinkedIn usage predicted career benefits, rather than your number of contacts. So get posting. udacity.com
