New British production with UK presenters and case studies.
Accredited - OCN level 2 and ASDAN.
Over 650,000 participants successfully completed GOALS (over 50,000 in UK).
More than 500 agency staff licensed to deliver GOALS in the UK.
Originally conceived by self-esteem expert Jack Canfield (author of “Chicken Soup for the Soul” books – sold over 100 million copies!)
Based on over 20 years of best practice research and implementation of Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behaviour techniques, solution focussed therapy, motivational interviewing and NLP.
Judged the best motivation programme in a US national competition of major training companies.
In the US, Los Angeles County saved $2.84 in reduced welfare benefits for every $1 spent on GOALS.
Train-The-Trainer format is easy to implement and very economical (use of your staff to implement the programme adds credibility through their use of personal anecdotes.)
At less than £30 per person it is the most affordable, results-producing programme available, so you don't need to unduly restrict participation.
The DVD element features multi-ethnic/disabled role models who share how they overcame various forms of dysfunctional behaviour. This allows participants to relate and "connect" with the programme.
High quality of the participant materials & DVD respects the dignity of the individual participants.
Presents internal motivation, healthy self-esteem and life-skills principles that are a prerequisite to success for any self-sufficiency programme.
Modular design integrates with existing programmes to augment their success.
Has proven effective with the most resistant and hardest-to-place clients.
Currently serving the largest welfare-to-work programme in the US (LA County DPSS GAIN).
Track record of success includes the largest to the smallest agencies.
Not just a "quick fix" - produces results that last a lifetime.
The research was grounded by in-person interviews of several hundred at-risk individuals and the agency staff working with them.
GOALS was pilot tested for six weeks with at-risk groups. The video and workbook were then completely revised based on the feedback.
The success principles behind the GOALS programme make it adaptable to almost any type of programme.
The interactive style of the facilitator training acts to re-energise your staff.
The “train the trainer process” and materials brings out the best in the facilitator, by encouraging the use of their own personal and audience-specific anecdotes to reinforce the training points.
GOALS doesn't replace skills-based training. It is an effective complement and acts as a catalyst.
GOALS uses practical concepts that have broad audience appeal.
The programme was carefully designed to avoid excess theory and "talking down" to participants, which helps restore their personal pride.
GOALS focuses on the strengths, abilities and desires of each participant rather than relying on external rewards.
GOALS inspires people to take control of their own lives by developing the inner desire to become more successful over the long term - rather than relying on external cheerleading, which tends to fade in hours, days or weeks.
DVD and fully illustrated workbook make the concepts accessible to limited English and low literacy participants.
Practical, experiential presentation style allows participants to quickly relate to the concepts.
Participants are allowed to learn and grow at their own pace.
GOALS is a self-contained, "turn key" motivational training programme that is easy to implement and runs consistently at mutiple locations.
