ProSkills - What's New? #003



11 September 2010
 
Dear Clients & Friends,
 
We at ProSkills Trainers wish all our Muslim clients and friends SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI. Maaf zahir batin!
 
I'm sorry that I haven't written for about a year. Will try to send regular updates from now. The following are some new developments:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this issue:
1. New English Programmes
2. New Business Presentation Skills Programme
3. New Trainers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
1. New English Programmes
 
Last year, we launched our Basic English Programme. Due to the great demand for follow-up programmes, we've now come up the Intermediate English Programme and Business Writing Programme.
 
Here's a brief synopsis:
 
The English ExpressEnglish Programmes

This is a series of three 2-day intensive programmes for support staff and lower management employees (or higher) who require ready-to-use English language skills. It aims to help participants overcome the fear of English and to enable them to communicate confidently in English in the shortest possible time. This is not a formal English language course. Instead, participants learn mainly through active participation in activities.

The English Express I™ Basic English Programme focuses on basic grammar and speaking skills.

The English Express II™ Intermediate English Programme focuses on intermediate grammar and speaking skills.

The English Express III™ Business Writing Programme focuses solely on writing skills.

The Course Outlines are attached.
 
 
2. New Business Presentation Skills Programme
 
This 3-day programme covers basic presentation skills, plus how to deliver PowerPoint and sales presentations.
 
The Course Outline is attached.
 
 
3. New Trainers
 
We are in the process of engaging new trainers to help meet the increasing workload. We will introduce them to you very soon. I'm letting you know in advance to add to the suspense! Ok!
 
 
Last but not least, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your business and support. We enjoyed working with all of you. Together, we can train more people and create a more skilful workforce. :)
 
 
Yours Sincerely,

Sandy Tan

ProSkills News #023

Dear Friends of ProSkills Trainers,
 
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all our Muslim friends. Maaf zahir batin!

1. Upcoming Programmes - October to December 2010
 
This year, we did not organize many public programmes due to the great demand for corporate programmes. Before the year ends, however, we would like to conduct the following courses.

If the courses are not confirmed until pretty late, the dates are likely to be taken over for corporate training. We will, however, do our best to put on the show.

2. Dare To Speak™ for Executives & Professionals - 28 & 29 August - REPORT

Dare To Speak™ Public Speaking Programme for Executives & Professionals
28 & 29 August 2010
@ Qualine Edu Success, Sunway

This session promised some peculiarities right from the start. First of all, it was to be conducted during the fasting month. Secondly, the dates were in the middle of a long weekend. As we could find no other dates, we had no choice but to go ahead.

It turned out that many parents took the opportunity to send their children (college or university students) to attend the course, most of them taking advantage of the special discount for Muslims. Eventually, we had 11 participants, 5 of whom were college or university students.

Azmi Shahrin - Public Speaking Coach & Trainer Dare To Speak Public Speaking Programme
A big challenge ahead for the trainer

There were other peculiarities. Firstly, the participants got more rounds of practice during the entire programme due to each speech being briefer than was normal. There were 2 impromptu sessions where each participant wrote a question or topic on a piece of paper for another to pick up (and speak on the topic). However, there was no debate session this time.

In any case, the participants learned the same basic skills - how to overcome nervousness and speech crutches, how to use body language and hand gestures, how to stand, make eye contact, vary the voice, use correct pronunciation, etc.

Unfortunately though, 2 of the students didn't come back the second day!! I later learned from their mother that they felt the session was too serious and intimidating. My own view is that they hadn't reached the point (they were quite young) where achieving results in the shortest possible time would be a major concern (as for the working adults). Anyway, we'll be giving the mother a free seat to attend a future session. She should benefit better, so the problem is considered solved. In future, we have to advise parents that the training method is actually quite aggressive. Come to think of it! The trainer ruefully said it was his first failure in 9 years.

Despite this minor hiccup, the other participants managed to graduate and I believe they were happy with the results!

That's all I have to report. Enjoy your holidays!!! :) :)

Message from Sandy Tan:
Hi everyone,

Here are the pictures from our recent public speaking course. One of the participants requested that we do not post her photos on the Internet, in case you wonder why she's missing.

We wish all the Malay participants (and their families) Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, maaf zahir batin.
