Creative Thinking and Innovation Course

Creative Thinking and Innovation Course Overview

Creative thinking and innovation are vital components in both our personal and professional lives. However, many people feel as though they are lacking in creativity. What most of us do not recognize is that we are creative on a daily basis, whether it’s picking out what clothes to wear in the morning or stretching a tight budget at work. While these tasks may not normally be associated with creativity, there is a great deal of creativity involved to get those jobs done. While some people seem to be simply bursting with creativity, others find it a struggle to think outside the square. If you fall into the latter category, it is important to understand that boosting your creative and innovative abilities takes practice. Recognizing and honing your own creative potential is a process. That’s what this two-day workshop is all about.

    “Relocating to Canada was the most challenging decision I and my family had to make, the uncertainties of a new country. I was determined that I won't risk everything to start earning minimum wage. I took my PMP training with Piston & Fusion, earned my certification at the first attempt, and to be honest it has elevated my career trajectory”

    "The firm I worked with in Abuja had not paid salaries for 5 months, I decided to leave the country, and left for Dubai. I applied for a safety officer vacancy, out of 15 applicants I was the only person that was selected with HSE level 1, 2 and 3 certificate. I thought getting a job here would be difficult but my certificate helped me."
