The Continuing and Professional Development (CPD) division of San Jacinto College will offer a one-time course that will provide helpful tips and guidelines for productive time management.

“Spread Too Thin! How to Manage Your Time Effectively” will be held at the Pearland Commerce Center, located at 6117 Broadway in Pearland, on Thursday, March 25 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The price of the course is $60, and pre-registration is required. To register, please call 281-922-3440 and request CRN# 90920.

The instructor for the course will be Sheila Wall, who works as a consultant for San Jacinto College’s Small Business Development Center. Wall holds a master’s degree in management and human resources, and a bachelor’s degree in business studies. She has extensive experience in time management training.

During the course, Wall will incorporate material from Stephen covey’s highly-acclaimed book “Seven Habits of Highly Effective People,” as well as information from Hyrum Smith’s book “Ten Natural Laws of Successful Time and Life Management.”

“A business owner does not necessarily need more time, but rather better time organization skills,” Wall commented. “Understanding how to better prioritize and manage time is essential for any small business owner and will ultimately show up in your business’ bottom line. People attending the class will learn how to focus on specific techniques for planning a job and how to overcome barriers that are always present.”

Course highlights will include:

• Understanding the goals of time management and priority management;

• Identifying priorities based on importance and urgency;

• Identifying attitudes and techniques to help stay on track.

Participants will receive a six-page syllabus that outlines primary points taught in the course, and will earn three Continuing Education Units credit through the College’s CPD division.
