Workplaces are social environments, so your ability to build and maintain productive relationships depends on your emotional intelligence (EQ). EQ is social intelligence, which is a key determiner of job performance, effective leadership and overall wellbeing. But, if EQ isn’t your strong point, don’t panic – you can improve your emotional intelligence quotient.
The Emotional Intelligence Program is an online course that will teach you how to develop and apply EQ for personal and career success. You will explore the skills required to understand and use EQ to improve your self-awareness, empathy, and ability to deal sensitively with the feelings of others.
In this professional development course, you will explore the importance of EQ in leadership. You will learn how to effectively manage teams, deal with conflict and stress, as well as improve your influence and engagement with colleagues.
On completion of this course, you will be equipped to improve your professional and personal relationships, reduce stress and increase your motivation and productivity in the workplace.

When you study with Australian Online Courses, you will be assessed using a competency-based training method.
Competency-based training focuses on the achievement of skills and knowledge against set criteria to ensure your competency is industry relevant. You will not be benchmarked against other students.
If you do not achieve a competency result on your first attempt, you have two more attempts to pass your assessment. So, you have three attempts in total to obtain a competency result.
In this way, you can complete your course in your own time and at your own pace with the assistance of unlimited tutor support.
In this course, you will be assessed via multiple-choice questions to determine your mastery of details and specific knowledge gained during your studies to achieve a ‘competent’ or ‘not yet competent’ result.
Benefits of Multiple-Choice Assessments
