2023 BEYA (2617) Planning for Success: Increasing Personal Effectiveness Through Time Management

Learning Objective: Develop time management skills for better organization and productivity.

Students who have learned how to manage time during high school effectively are better prepared for the rigors of college study. Regardless of preparation, it takes time to adjust to college. Improve your time management skills by setting goals and staying within them. Even students who manage time well during high school often struggle when they begin college. Students are overwhelmed with large course loads, extracurricular activities, and other social activities. Although being in college can be overwhelming, completing everything that must be done in a timely and efficient manner is possible. Developing time management and organizational skills is the key to working efficiently. The best way to better manage time is to create daily schedules. Most organized people plan daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. This seminar will show you how to be self-motivated, leading to better organizational skills, productivity, and efficiency.

After this seminar, the participants will be able to:

1. Outline long-term goals and a plan to obtain them.
2. Develop detailed plans for each day and how to deal with delays.
3. Break large projects down into several more straightforward projects.
4. Cultivate a flexible schedule.
