Problem Solving and Decision Making

Training Course • The University of the South Pacific

About the CPD course

We make decisions and solve problems continually. We start making decisions before we even get out of bed (shall I get up now or not?). Sometimes; we will have made as many as 50 decisions by the time we leave for work. Despite all the natural decision making that goes on and the problem solving we do; some people are very uncomfortable with having to make decisions. You may know someone who has a hard time making decisions about what to eat; never mind the internal wrestling they go through in order to take on major decisions at work. Likewise; we’ve probably all looked at a solution to something and said; “I could have thought of that.” The key to finding creative solutions is not just creativity; although that will certainly help. The answer rests in our ability to identify options; research them; and then put things together in a way that works. Having a process to work through can take the anxiety out of problem solving and make decisions easier. That’s what this two-day workshop is all about.

The University of the South Pacific

The University of the South Pacific, as one of two regional universities in the world, is supported by 12 Pacific Island Countries - Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Niue, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. The University graduated its first cohort of 32 students in 1971 and during the intervening years over 44,000 graduates have successfully completed their studies. Today the university has an enrolment of over 29,000 students studying in all 12 countries and 14 Campuses. This regional composition of the staff and students, augmented by colleagues and students from outside the Pacific region, gives the university a healthy diversity of nationalities, religions, cultures, ethnic groups and languages.
