This program integrates her lessons and  insights from the past 10 years of working with the top  minds in  consulting and industry, talking and listening to productivity  experts  and reading thousands and thousands of pages on the topic of  productivity, learning and stress reduction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please check out the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/mindmatters.pro\/fastforward\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">course webpage<\/span><\/a> for further information on what the Fast Forward program includes in detail, how it works, how long the online material is accessible etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Once you have been enrolled in the course&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You will receive the course agreement with details about the prerequisites  for being awarded credits and certificates (i.e. completion of all  modules, participation in Q&amp;A Sessions, completion of assignments),  confidentiality and intellectual property<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once you have signed the course agreement electronically, you will receive a welcome e-mail  with your access details to the course and the invitation to the group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can access the Getting Started Module straight away,&nbsp;the remaining modules will be released one at a time every week.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are happy to announce our next project management workshop &#8220;Fast Forward \u2013 The Ultimate Productivity System for Researchers&#8221; with Dr. Nadine Sinclair.
