All PETAL Personal and Professional Training sessions focus on empowerment through awareness raising in knowledge, attitudes and behaviors. The sessions run for an average of three hours each and bring together a maximum of 20 participants in any one session to ensure adequate learning opportunities for each participant. Each provides basic guidelines, tips or skills about SMART goal setting, relevant communication skills to enter the working environment, necessary professional documents for seeking employment, characteristics of a professional in the work/business filed, or confidence-building techniques that will help participants function confidently in personal as well as in professional and formal settings.
