Extrinsic and Intrinsic Rewards Certificate

Extrinsic and Intrinsic Rewards Certificate Course

Figuring out an ideal reward system is the best way to motivate yourself and others to complete tasks. There are two main types of rewards that people tend to use: extrinsic rewards and intrinsic rewards. Understanding the difference between the main two types of rewards and how they can be applied to all situations, including at work and at home, can help you and others to feel more productive. This knowledge also helps you avoid over-rewarding individuals for certain tasks or behaviours, which almost always backfires.

This course provides you with comprehensive information regarding both extrinsic and intrinsic rewards. It begins by explaining extrinsic rewards in detail and moves on to describe intrinsic rewards. The features and important aspects of each reward are reviewed, helping to clarify exactly what each one is. The course then moves on to cover the ways in which you can use extrinsic rewards, in order to motivate yourself and others. Finally, the course covers the importance of praise, mentorship, education and feedback.

You will Learn:

  • When using extrinsic rewards should be done with caution.
  • The features that must be present, in order to increase the value of intrinsic rewards.
  • How to use extrinsic rewards to motivate, without it backfiring.
  • The reasons why you should start with praise.
  • How to use intrinsic rewards to motivate yourself and others at home or at work.
  • Why you should provide opportunities for advancement.

Benefits of taking this Course

  • Learning when extrinsic rewards are the most powerful motivators.
  • Understanding when to use extrinsic rewards and when to use intrinsic rewards.
  • Learning why you should never mix extrinsic and intrinsic rewards.
  • Learning why providing extrinsic and intrinsic rewards are more motivating than punishments or negative consequences.
  • Understanding the benefits of offering challenging work to all staff members.

This course is incredibly helpful and easy to understand to start off a career in event planning. The case studies give you an insight into the real world of this role and not just the "shiny exterior". I'm loving this course and cannot wait to use the knowledge that I have gained in the [hopefully not so distant] future!

I am Massage Therapist, I know many things about various massages and techniques. On this website I finished Upper body course and I learned loads of interesting information which I did not know before. I recommend this for everyone who wants to be a professional massage therapist or just keep it as a hobby and give a massages to family members or close friends, because it is very helpful to know how to give massage correctly. Definitely will buy more courses from this website. Looking forward to buy a new course and learn more and more and more!

I have just completed the Level 3 Customer Services Diploma course. This course covers all aspects of what exactly customer service is and how somebody could be an excellent costumer representative.

Although I have 10 years work experience, I should admit that I found it quite interesting. This course is comprehensive and any professional can add some useful knowledge. It offers some essential tips for all who want to succeed in the customer service role.

The modules are well organised and understandable, so anybody can easily become familiar with the terminology. I do propose to anybody to attend this course.

This course was a good introduction to payroll and the content was easy to read and well set out. I would recommend this course to anyone that would like to start out in payroll.

I found this course most interesting. Having been a Receptionist in various industries over the years, and learning more at each location, this course helped focus my thoughts 'back to basics' and made me rethink some of the things I'd learnt. Very helpful, very concise, informative and uncomplicated.

It also gave great insights into the different kind of Reception work which can be so varied. I have been put forward for a Doctors Receptionist vacancy, a 'trade' I haven't ventured into yet, and will take what I have learnt from the course to the interview and hopefully it will stand me in good stead.

As the Head of HR, I always have to keep up to date on all law. This course was brilliant and helped me brush up on some areas I hadn’t worked on for some time. Really great value and also very user friendly – brilliant purchase!

For me personally, I have a Masters in HR Management and I love to keep developing and learning and this course was a brilliant way to satisfy my hunger for learning but I could also fit it in with my full time role – win win!

Another positive edition to anyone’s CV – would recommend to anyone even if you are just curious about your employee rights!
