Compact half-day or
Comprehensive 1 day
The volume of information bombarding us today can be overwhelming. Being able to read it quickly, understand it and remember it is an increasing concern for us all. So much so, that speed reading is becoming an essential skill to acquire.
The Effective Speed Reading™ course is not just about developing your reading speed; it also teaches techniques to improve information absorption and recall. The programme includes the unique INSEAK® approach to reading, exclusive to Illumine, which shows you exactly how to achieve this.
Effective Speed Reading™ will treble your reading speed and save many, many hours!

- Prioritise and save time - read what's important and have more time to get on with your other work.
- Improve your efficiency and effectiveness - through greater comprehension and easier recall of information.
- Manage information more effectively - expand your knowledge base and make informed decisions.
- Slash time spent studying - condense reading and recall information more effectively in lectures, exams and assignments.
- Increase competence and confidence - build knowledge and understanding of any subject - and be able to recall it when you need it!
