Attended the Effective Trainer Course today. This course is actually for a group of Soon to be Trainer for a new program in our Co. I was the "lucky" one to be appointed to be one of the Trainers. In order for us to execute our duty as a Trainer, we must attend a series of courses to equip us with the necessary skill and this Effective Trainer Course is one of them. Basically this course teach us how to handle nasty Trainees, presentation skills, etc etc. Hate this type of course cause the Trainer will actually made us present in front of the rest of the trainees. & worse, they actually filmed us when we are making the presentation. It's like some S'pore Idol audition.

Went to Veona's school for the meet the teacher session. The DISC assessment result for Veona was given to us. The P5 pupils had earlier done a DISC assessment in Term 1 and the school had invited the DISC consultant to elaborate further on the assessment. DISC is a model of human behavior that helps people understand “why they do what they do.” The dimensions of Dominance, influencing, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness make up the DISC model and interact with other factors to describe human behavior.

Veona is more on the high "I" scores. People with High "I" scores influence others through talking and activity and tend to be emotional. They are described as convincing, magnetic, political, enthusiastic, persuasive, warm, demonstrative, trusting, and optimistic. The consultant also taught us on how to handle kids with different DISC characters. The session last till 9, can't really absorb much cause hungry hungry.
