Description

Positive Psychology is a fairly recent research field that focuses on how certain positive traits and states of individuals contributes to their mental and physical well-being, motivation, performance, and success !

Positive Psychological Capital is an important concept here, and it is defined as the positive and developmental state of an individual, as characterised by 4 factors, or components … high Self-Efficacy, Resiliency, Hope and Optimism.

Given today’s dynamic and unpredictable environment, organisations need a lot more options for competitive advantage. Traditional resources and capital like Economic and Financial Capital, Advanced Technology, Innovation etc, are not sufficient.

Surveys and studies have repeatedly revealed, that most organisations today, are not realising the full potential of their employees, thereby losing out big time !

Ironically, Research also reveals, that the most employee productivity, performance, and innovation, comes from employees who work in a positive organisational environment. Focusing and developing positive organisational behaviour, and positive psychological capital, whether as an individual, team or organisation, can have a huge impact on employee and leadership performance, job satisfaction, work happiness, organisational commitment, as well as mental and physical well-being.

So, there is indeed an urgent need to focus on positive psychology and psychological capital. Hence this Course !

This Course will talk about the need for a focus on Psychological Capital, as well as the 4 components of Positive Psychological Capital. It will also cover the different ways and means to improve your Psychological Capital, and the huge benefits of that !

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
