About This Programme
This programme introduces you the techniques of effective reading, comprehension and recall, and the skills that enable you to write persuasively based on the material you have read . . . and remember.
Memory training gives you skills necessary to be able to consistently recall key information at the right time during a conversation, meeting or presentation . . . and to create a great impression, a characteristic of successful people.
