Investing in yourself is the best way to return one's own investment? As John Maxwell said “Growth is the great separator between those who succeed and those who do not.”

So what is it?

An affordable e-learning platform that provides courses and workshops to help YOU develop your soft skills – making you ready for the ever changing world. Our courses are designed to challenge and motivate you to take action in your own life and grow.

 

Talk About Skills was designed in response to many students and young professionals who have come to us, struggling to enhance their soft skills. Unlike other e-learning platforms, you pay monthly for everything on the platform, rather than per course and has weekly talks from industry leaders and professionals that you can get involved in.

  1. The Teamwork course designed to identify what you bring to a team and how you can leverage those strengths for success.

2. The Digital Footprint course to equip you with the knowledge needed to monitor what you put out onto the internet, how interviewers will review you and how to use technology to improve your personal brand.

3. The Finding Your Passion course, gone are the days when you had to feel like the job you pick now is the job you keep forever. Explore your passions and how they link with various professions in order to strategically plan your next steps.
