RP Youth Leadership Programme

RP Youth Leadership Programme

I found the EAE workshop most useful as it showed me what to look out for in the EAE application process and how to submit a good write-up.

I found the critical thinking workshop really useful because I learned many skills for improvisations and what to do during stressful situations such as interviews.
