Here is an overview of the Critical Thinking Boot Camp:
EDA’s Critical Thinking Boot Camp powered by Pearson’s Watson-Glaser™ Critical Thinking Appraisal is specifically designed to help your workforce understand their critical thinking strengths and challenges, and build lasting skills on both the individual and team level utilizing tools and techniques developed and refined over the past 30 years.
What makes Critical Thinking Boot Camp so powerful is that the training is not limited to the intensive workshop. The three-phase program begins beforehand, as participants take the Watson-Glaser™II critical thinking assessment, and meet with their managers to identify the actual workplace problems to be solved.
In the second phase, the workshop itself, participants learn how to think critically as they examine the problem and develop a course of action. The third phase takes place a month later, as instructors follow up with participants and their managers with advice and support.
