Assertiveness for Technicians

In this course we will look at what assertiveness is and the behaviours we associate with someone behaving assertively. There will be tips and techniques on how to use language more assertively, including ways to say ‘no’, with time to practice the methods that are introduced with your peers. 

We recently asked for completed paperwork for roles to be reviewed as part of the Technician Job Family roll-out to be submitted online by Friday 23 July. We have been made aware that, due to the current situation, this deadline has been difficult for some individuals to meet. We have therefore extended the deadline to 13 August. All paperwork, together with Departmental approval, must be submitted by this date.

The link to the online form for submission is Request for Role Review (Technician Job Family) (warwick.ac.uk)

Please note that the paperwork must reflect the original role with any changes highlighted. Please do not submit new role descriptions for review at this point.

 Any questions regarding this process can be directed to Liz Harrison or Ian Hancox.
