Is this course right for me?

• This webinar is aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate psychology students within any year at university
• Students can be on any psychology course or specialism as this webinar will not focus on one area of psychology
• Students taking exams would benefit from this event as it will provide tips on how to plan time and manage exam stress (e.g. looking for the signs of burnout)
