Michael Lawlor Rojas (5th Year) outlines the topics covered in the Student Council training course which they participated in on Wednesday, 20th February.

On Wednesday, 20th February, the Student Council received a talk from Kevin Reid, a reputable Business communication coach. A very kind and confident man, Kevin Reid cleared up and explained a variety of Student Council related manners and skills. As a group, we learned of the importance of taking and archiving the minutes of a meeting, the power of the Chair Person and the overall importance of Student Council Representatives. Not only that, but he also taught us key communication skills including positive body language, how to make a good first impression and commanding respect and attention when speaking in public.

This talk was wholly beneficial and everyone who took part learned something new. (Click on blog title to see more photos.)
