Achieving Your Potential is a six-day development programme for members of University staff, at all levels, with a disability.

- Develop self-esteem, self-confidence, enhanced personal styles and ability to relate to others
- Set personal goals and gain benefit from one to one coaching
- Develop assertive communication, active listening and project themselves
- Work effectively with others: using negotiation methods and handling expectations
The programme consists of three one-day workshops accompanied by one-to-one development coaching for each participant.
Those applying to attend the programme should be able to commit to attendance on each of the days required. Please note on the coaching day participants will attend for a one hour session at a time to be finalised once they have been accepted onto to the programme.
The programme will be facilitated by ResultCIC who are a specialist Coaching and Development Consultancy with considerable experience in working with disabled and other groups to bring about long lasting positive change and personal growth.
