Instructors at educational institutions are often faced with high stress resulting from heavy teaching loads and limited time.

This course will show instructors how to manage time and stress in their lives and teach some of these skills to their students.

Students with learning disabilities are enrolling in career education at increasing rates as a result of successful interventions and supports provided during their elementary and secondary schooling. This course describes the characteristics of students with learning disabilities and how having a learning disability impacts their learning process. As reading and comprehension is the essence of learning, it is important that instructors be knowledgeable in ways to support students with these learning challenges. Specific strategies for working with these students will be offered, to enhance the engagement and learning success of students with learning disabilities.

Stress is something that is present throughout all workplaces in the world. It is often something that cannot be avoided, but instead, must be properly managed.

Throughout this course, we will discuss stress, burnout, and many of the causes that you may notice on even a daily basis. We will discuss how to appropriately handle and mitigate stressors, and how to lessen the risk of burnout occurring.
