On this page, you will find a variety of learning opportunities developed by the Next Level Lab team. The self-guided courses can be completed independently or with a team of colleagues. They include a mix of video presentations, PowerPoints, articles, case studies, and reflection questions. Additional standalone modules, tools, and resources that we have used in workshops with workforce development practitioners and people managers are also available. We hope these materials will help you bring Next Level Learning to your own practice.
A User’s Manual to Our Minds: A Set of Self-Guided Courses to Support Learning and Work Performance
We are developing a set of four self-guided courses on how our minds work and the implications for learning and work performance. Each course includes a collection of modules which can either be done individually or can provide the basis for group sessions and discussions. New modules will launch as they are ready. You can view an overview of the set of courses and the rationale behind their design here.
