2010-04-27T05:00:00.000-07:00

Are you are looking for leadership development training solutions? 3P Concepts offers leadership training programs tailored to your business.

1. Fundamental Laws of Leadership (intro)
This leadership course covers the principles of leadership and investigates the differences between leading as a leader, as opposed to leading because you’re appointed ‘leader’. This course is about identifying the qualities to effectively lead teams, peers and colleagues.

2. Laws of Leadership – application and recognition of leadership laws
This course looks at applying the fundamental laws of leadership into any workplace situation. It will assist individuals in recognising their existing leadership qualities and identifying areas that need further application. It is about not only understanding how to be a better leader, but applying that knowledge into everyday work practices.

3. Developing the Leader Within – identifying current leadership attributes and gap analysis
A more in depth look at applying leadership principles in the workplace. This course looks at the qualities of the leader and is imperative for those who aspire to move into middle or senior management positions. This course looks at the philosophy behind the principles and laws of leadership; priorities, integrity, problem solving, vision and self-discipline are some of the key areas explored in this workshop.

4. Integrating Workplace Leadership – developing leaders around you for workplace growth and productivity
The long term growth and survival of any business is reflected in its ability to develop a strong workplace culture to build and maintain momentum. Here we explore succession plans within the workplace, understanding that growing generations are not bound by the same job security or loyalty needs of previous generations. Investing and developing key people within your organisation to become future leaders, this course demonstrates how to achieve a strong, secure workforce to suit current economic environments and the changing culture of our workplace.

Business communication training and workshops

2010-04-27T04:28:00.000-07:00

Class and Course Finder, rural and regional Australia's online directory, would like to introduce 3P Concepts to the website. They offer business communication workshops and training throughout Queensland, including Bundaberg, Gladstone, Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville and Cairns.

It's vital for businesses and individuals to develop effective communication skills through comprehensive workshops such as those developed and presented by Lynda Gale at 3P Concepts. 3P Concepts will mentor you to ensure you find solutions for your business management needs. These courses and workshops will assist you in learning about personality types and how to communicate effectively with each personality type; interpersonal communication techniques and managing these; personal control dramas; and ways to increase productivity and staff morale.

Below are the business communication workshops offered and these can be tailored to your particular business needs:

Developing winning relationships: This course introduces personality types, the objective is to explain and demonstrate the four personality types (based on the personality plus model), so that an individual can not only identify with their own personal traits but also allows them to identify and relate to others around them. By understanding how we are ‘wired’ we can then also begin to communicate directly in the language of that personality. The information discussed in this course covers every aspect of our daily interactions whether at work, home, in private relationships or socially.
Managing interactive dynamics: Once we understand the basic communication traits of our personality types we can than apply this knowledge externally to better understand the relationships of work colleagues (this can also be applied to any relationship) and encompasses interpersonal communication techniques including verbal, non-verbal and body language communication techniques. This workshop will open up participants to understand the mechanics of their interactions and relationships with others, and ultimately have conscious control of them.
Understanding ‘Control’ Points – Behavioural circles and control dramas: With a basic understanding of how to identify and focus on key issues within interactive relationships, individuals will then discover the patterns that determine our relationships (again this information can be invaluable in any relationship context). The objective of this workshop is to promote conscious awareness of our personal control dramas so that we can then better conduct relationships.
Managing Workplace Dynamics: With an understanding of how we are perceived by others, and why our colleagues behave or react in different situations and relationships, we can now begin to look at our workforce from a third perspective and identify areas where changes are needed to increase productivity, growth and morale. It’s knowing “who’s who’ in your work team and being able to provide a stable environment to manage individual dynamics, it is about providing a workplace culture that is dynamic and flexible enough to encourage individual contributions to a team project.

Cairns Dive Centre conducts advanced dive courses, which start daily and are completed over 3 days and 2 nights - spent entirely on board the M.V. Kangaroo Explorer at the Outer Barrier Reef. The SSI stress and Rescue course is conducted over 5 days and consists of 10 dives in total.

The rescue courses start every 2nd Monday. The Divemaster course is the first step in making diving your career. You will have the opportunity to assist entry-level students both in the classroom and pool as well as in open water.

Once you have learnt to dive, progression through the various dive leadership roles will teach you how to communicate and teach effectively, present to groups, improve your people management skills, provide a background on how to create a safe work environment and various other business and work place abilities such as occupational first aid.

Scuba Diver is the perfect course for those who do not have time to complete an entire Open Water Diver Program. The content of this program represents about half of the Open Water Diver Program. You can then complete the second half and become a certified diver at another time, anywhere that is convenient for you.

The Scuba Diver Program will be fully credited towards the Open Water Diver Program. This way you will not have to redo any part of the program twice. After a short skill update you can complete your Open Water Diver rating. Certified Scuba Divers are entitled to go diving under the direct supervision of a Dive Leader up to a maximum depth of 40 feet/12 metres. This allows you to have a lot of fun and gain further diving experience even without continuing your education. At the end of the program you will receive your Scuba Diver Certificate indicating the successful completion of this program. This certificate entitles you to take part in guided dives all over the world. If you ever decide to continue your training and become a certified diver just contact your local SSI Training Facility for details on how to compoete your SSI open water diver rating.

SSI Advanced Adventurer: The optional Advanced Adventurer can be the entry to continuing education, especially for those divers who cannot decide which specialty courses they want to learn. During the Advanced Adventurer Program you will have the chance to try out 5 different specialties. You will complete one open water training dive per specialty in order to get a better understanding for each specialty area. Later, you can choose to complete all or just a few of your selected speciaties through a Specialty Course by completing the second dive and finishing all academic requirements.

SSI Specialty Diver: SSI’s intermediate diver rating is higher than any other agency’s advanced courses. To earn the certification for Specialty Diver, you must complete 2 specialty courses and have done a total of 12 dives.

SSI Advanced Open Water Diver: SSI’s Advanced Diver rating stands alone in the industry with the highest combination of diving knowledge and experience. No other agency’s advanced diver level compares. To earn the certification for Advanced Open Water Diver, you must complete 4 specialty courses and have done a total of 24 dives.
SSI Master Diver: SSI’s Master Diver rating is one of the most elite ratings in diving today. Divers that have completed this level have combined the knowledge, skills and experience to truly call themselves Master Divers. To earn the certification for Master Diver, you must complete 4 specialty courses, Diver Stress&Rescue and have done a total of 50 dives.

Pro Dive Cairns: If you are thinking about taking the plunge our 5 day PADI "Open Water" dive course is by far the most popular way to do it. The adventure of learning to dive as well as staying out on the reef for 3 days and 2 nights on one of our premium live aboard vessels is quite unique. Your course includes 9 dives on some of the best dive sites the Outer Great Barrier Reef has to offer as well as plenty of time to snorkel, relax and really enjoy the reef experience.

On the night of your return to Cairns you have the option to join your fellow passengers and the crew for a farewell dinner at a local restaurant.
Our dive course options cater for everyone from beginner through to professional levels. Our modern, purpose built training centre provides the best diver training facilities available with 3 air conditioned classrooms and a large, 4 metre deep, heated training pool.

New craft class offered

2009-09-16T04:21:00.000-07:00

A new craft technique is now being offered in the Mackay and Sarina areas in Queensland. These classes are offered by Tascia Mare who teaches the craft of decoupage (the art of cutting, arranging and gluing pictures to a surface to create a beautifully finished product). Tascia teaches a range of different forms of decoupage including paper cut-outs, fabric and the new technique of paper napkins (serviettes).

The serviette decoupage technique is an effective and easy technique which is offered nowhere else in Australia. These classes teach you to create your own unique and inexpensive gifts and homewares using decorative paper serviettes to decorate just about any surface including glass, wood, candles, galvanised steel, ceramics, soaps, porcelain, enamel and fabric. Some of these methods are so simple you will be amazed at how quickly your project is to complete.

Tascia also offers classes in 3D decoupage which uses paper serviettes and clay. This technique takes a little longer, but you will be amazed at how your projects come to life. The products used in these classes are available nowhere else in Australia. For example, the product used for paper serviettes on glass, makes the decorated glass item hand washable in warm water, whilst the product used for serviettes on fabric, makes the finished fabric item machine washable. Once you learn this technique, you will discover new ways to decorate everyday items and you don't even have to be artistic or creative! The products used in these classes can be purchased.

These decoupage craft classes are currently being offered in the Mackay and Sarina area in Queensland. To find out more, click here. Here you will find an ever expanding range of unique and interesting classes, courses, training courses, workshops, lessons and tutoring services currently found in this area. This website is a dedicated online directory for anyone looking to update their skills, enhance their career or learn something fun and interesting.

So, if you are a provider that offers classes or courses, but you can't find the category that your services fall under, please contact us and we will include that category and relevant sub-categories.

We are currently focusing on Queensland, but will be expanding nationally. Since we are based in the Mackay region in Queensland, we will be launching the website in this region and offering special offers to businesses so they can list their class, course, workshop, training, lesson or tutoring service. You can apply online or call 1300 225 600 for further details. You can expose your business to thousands of customers everyday by advertising on Class and Course Finder.

Are you looking for a class, course, training course, workshop or tutoring service in Queensland? Class and Course Finder is your one-stop online directory to help you find what you are looking for. Whether you are looking to enhance your potential, develop your career, learn a new skill, or spend some time creating, then look no further.

Class and Course Finder was founded by Tascia Mare in April 2009. Tascia holds a Bachelor of Learning Management degree (Primary) with distinction from the CQ University, Rockhampton. In April 2009 she was awarded the prestigious Catholic Education Rockhampton Diocese prize for the highest GPA in Religious Studies, together with the CQ University Mackay Learning and Innovation prize for the highest GPA in Learning Management.

The original idea for the website, was sparked by an interest in teaching, in art and in craft-type classes. This idea later developed to incorporate a wider range of classes, courses, workshops, training sessions, lesson or tutoring facilities. So, whether you want to improve your current academic or career skills, have moved to a new town or want to build a new social network through a hobby or sport, then Class and Course Finder can help you investigate the best classes and courses in your area that will help you enhance your true potential.
