For example, the page on time management suggests the viewer also visit the pages on work–life balance, how to delegate, and assertiveness techniques.
● Because of the self-directed nature and reading level of the material, this resource is ideal for users with advanced English and literacy skills.
● The content of the E-books duplicates the website content, but is organized in a format that enables printing and sharing.
● Information is presented so that users can read, reflect, and complete exercises in a self-directed structure. Some activities are only appropriate for group contexts where participants can interact. Information can be incorporated into facilitated group lessons and activities.
