Fleet managers who are pushed for time can now take advantage of two shorter online courses, run by The Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP).
The ‘Time Management’ and ‘Change Gear in Your Career’ courses are 90 minutes long and are designed to fit into busy schedules, helping fleet managers develop practical skills and strategies. Each course costs £99 for AFP members or £145 for non-members.
Time Management is intended to improve decision making, enabling fleet managers to focus on work that generates high value, long-term results. It will be held on 10 February and 28 April. The AFP said that Change Gear in Your Career helps identify strengths and talents, increases impact and enhances professional image. The course will be held on 3 March.
Ronnie Gillman, training manager at the AFP, said: “We believe time-pressured fleet managers should have the opportunity to access high quality, effective training and these bite-sized courses are our response to that need.
“Covering areas of personal development that fleet managers often tell us they want to tackle in a cost-effective course that can be easily squeezed into a working day, they provide valuable new approaches that can be put into practice straight away.”
In addition to the online courses, the AFP recently added another in-person Accelerate course, Navigating People Challenges.
Gillman said: “Accelerate has become a popular concept. These courses provide fleet managers with a strong grounding in essential areas of the profession and have been an important part of the success of the AFP Fleet Academy in recent years. The new course, Navigating People Challenges, helps develop your skills to create better personnel outcomes.
“Whether managing people is a new part of your responsibilities or something you’ve been doing for many years, it explores a range of different tools and approaches in a safe and supportive environment.”
