Course Overview

Ever wondered what makes people tick? Understanding why humans feel, think and behave as they do, can help you better engage and work with others.

The Intro to Human Behaviour micro-credential explores what makes you, “you.” Discover how you shape your sense of self and your outlook on life.

In this 7-week course you will learn how to use self-awareness to improve how you relate to yourself and others. Learn the fundamentals of human behaviour and how your behaviour impacts your connections with others, on a personal and professional level.

Whether you’re starting your career, getting back into the job market or aiming for a promotion, the better you understand human behaviour (your own and others), the better you can work with others to achieve organisational goals.
