Plan For Success

Planning to be successful is pivotal when undertaking study. In being educationally prepared, your level of engagement with the resources will determine whether you have a meaningful learning experience. The courses offered by facts of life™ Lactation Education, specifically the courses in the Lactation Consultants Examination Preparation (Exam Prep - EP) comprehensive program, underpins building your capacity to provide gold standard care for women, babies, and families.

Below are 10 simple hints to help you to develop a 'routine' for effective learning:

1. Organise your study time - create a timetable that will provide a balance between course content and life.
2. Organise your study space - find a place where you can go to optimise your study, free from distraction e.g. television, parties etc.
3. Do not do anything other than focus on the content - multitasking does not complement study!
4. Be well rested - fatigue makes retention of content more difficult.
5. Make the course a priority - plan for bite size segments that make engaging with the content of the course easy, enjoyable, and interesting.
6. Take notes, take notes, take notes!
7. Read widely, take advantage of the additional resources.
8. Review your study notes.
9. Like 'Facts of Life training Solutions' Facebook page, where additional resources will be posted, and discussion is generated.
10. Prepare to complete the whole suite of courses prior to the exam deadlines.
