Detailed Syllabus for the Memory Skills Course

You don’t have to be blessed with good memory from birth to enjoy one. Anyone can enjoy the many benefits of good memory and recall by using powerful memory techniques. Methods, examples and exercises explained in this course can help delegates to improve their memory many times over.

The course provides immediate results. By the end of the course delegates will learn several techniques that they can put to use immediately. Delegates can use these methods to remember list of names, numbers, people and faces, jargons, vocabulary of foreign languages, information from books and school work.

The course is designed with the needs of everyone in mind. From university students to businessmen, academics and professionals, people from all industries and domains can benefit from this course.

By going through this course, delegates will be able to:

  • Recall a long list of words with ease
  • Pair words together and remember the pairing associations
  • Remember a long sequence of numbers
  • Remember the data for much longer such as weeks or months
  • Remember data by going over it only once
  • Avoid using repetition and rote learning techniques that consume so much time and lead to poor short-term results
  • Use the memory techniques for learning languages, school or university courses, industry jargons, people’s names and so on

The real power behind the memory techniques explored in this course is that they are easy to understand, quick to apply and amazingly lead to near permanent recall even after being used only once. As explained in the course, the memory techniques can be used in conjunction with methods such as spaced repetition to get impeccable results.

The course focuses on teaching delegates how to remember useful everyday data. The aim is to focus on areas that most people struggle with and wish they could do something about.

This course can be used in conjunction with Learning to Learn for a two day course. It is best if delegates go through Learning to Learn first and then follow it with this course to focus on Memory Skills.

About the Design Philosophy of Memory Skills Course

Learn to unleash the power of your imagination so you can remember more, remember it faster and for much longer.

This course is designed to show and convince delegates that memory can be improved effectively and quickly using the right methods. At the beginning of the course, delegates will go through an assessment exercise to measure their current recall rate.

This is then following by covering foundation and the theory behind memorisation and recall. This is critical since each method should ultimately be customised to suit a person’s needs and style. If delegates know why the methods work they can customise them more effectively and use them correctly.

While going through the first several exercises, most delegates will be amazed at what they have achieved up to that point and in such a short amount of time.

Many visualisation techniques are explored in this course and delegates are encouraged to work together through some exercises to practice the skills and also to learn from each other’s approaches.

The course is extremely interactive and since memorisation can be demanding, pace and energy is carefully monitored in the course to make sure delegates don’t get too tired as they go through the sessions.

Several end-of-course exercises are also provided to showcase the use of methods explored in the course and also to assess the recall rate of delegates so they can see for themselves how much they have improved during the course. These exercises also help delegates to learn how to choose the right methods for the right memory tasks.
