Women's Health (ProFemme) Practitioner Course

A Distance Learning Course of 12 Lessons
Course Description

The word ProFemme comes from the Latin word "Pro" meaning for, on behalf of, towards, favouring or supporting -,and "Femme" a french word simply meaning "woman". So in conjunction it means -towards femininity, supporting the basics of femaleness, becoming more effective as a female.

In the ProFemme practitioner course the student will acquire the latest information with regard to the intricate workings of the female body. These are subtle, inexplicable and are usually precipitated by the hormone system. The course will explain how the hormones influence ALL aspects of a female's life and how these can be balanced - naturally.

It will also outline the attacks on this system by pollution of various sorts and what one can do about it. By having access to this information and implementing it the successful student will lead a far more effective and fulfilling life, benefitting herself and all those around her.

The knowledge from this course can be used to set up a practice as a ProFemme practitioner. It will also become a valuable qualification for therapists wanting to increase their knowledge about their female clients or to combine with other courses such as counselling, stress management, weight consultancy and nutrition.

Job Interview Skills

Getting the job you want is not about following rules or giving the 'right' interview answer. It is about presenting yourself in the most authentic way that takes care of you and the interviewers at the same time. So many people throw their chances away: they do not take enough care and interview preparation time so that the whole process is enjoyable, stimulating and informative for both parties. This section aims to show you how.

The Effective Learner Course

This section will consider the importance of study skills and how we can identify and enhance our current skill set. We will then take a closer look at different learning styles and how knowledge of our own preferences in this area can make our learning more effective. Finally we will look at some basic time management techniques to enable you to plan and organise your studies and stay motivated.
