Creative problem solving

This course encourages you to go beyond existing procedures to solve problems you experience within your role. Through discussions, practical activities and self discovery, you will build your knowledge and ability to creatively solve problems.

This course focuses on the premise that solutions are always possible and presents simple and effective tools to facilitate the necessary exploration of the problem and identification of possible solutions. It also explores whether simple paradigm shifts could impact the methods of identifying and solving problems and encourages you to consider existing procedures and the impact these have on the solutions achieved.
