Empower Yourself by Mastering Assertiveness
Are you tired of holding back in conversations?
Are you fed up with people taking advantage of you?
Perhaps you find it difficult to remain composed when someone frustrates you.
If you don’t speak up for yourself, refuse to make decisions, or let others dictate your actions, people start to view you as a bit of a pushover, or someone who lacks confidence; neither of these is advantageous, especially in the workplace.
Often, it’s easier for you to swallow your feelings, shout at someone, or give them the silent treatment. But assertiveness is a much better strategy.
We’ve all had moments when we’ve failed to speak up for ourselves and said “yes” when we wanted to say no.
No matter how confident you are, most of us wonder if perhaps we couldn’t be just a bit more assertive in certain situations.
Luckily, assertiveness is a learned ability. It’s learned through practice.
Whatever your reasons for wanting to become more assertive, in this course you can explore basic skills and strategies to improve your assertiveness and develop your emotional intelligence.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
