The Science of Happiness

Happiness not only makes us feel good about ourselves but also affects our lives in many ways. The science of happiness course explains what makes human beings flourish and why we feel stressed and unhappy. Dealing with constant stress and struggling with unpleasant memories can pose barriers to happiness. The human brain processes emotions and experiences in a certain way, and our perceptions of experiences can affect our ability to be happy.

The course explains the fundamental psychology that underlies happiness and describes techniques that can sustain long-term contentment. While some part of happiness is genetically determined, we can improve our happiness levels through personal control.

What You Will Learn:

  • How happiness is defined in terms of psychology and the different emotions that contribute to happiness
  • The different forms of happiness and their effects in the short and long term
  • The different models of happiness and techniques to sustain long-term happiness
  • How the brain processes positive experiences in terms of function
  • How different types of memory contribute to happiness
  • How the brain operates to trigger responsive and reactive modes
  • How negativity bias affects the ability to process positive experiences
  • How repetition and emotion affect the formation of neural circuits

Benefits Of Taking the Course:

  • You will be able to differentiate between fleeting happiness and implement strategies that can enhance long-term satisfaction
  • Once you understand how the brain works, you can enjoy higher levels of happiness
  • You will discover how to focus on positive experiences and alter the way your brain processes experiences
  • Higher happiness levels will help you become calmer, enjoy better health, and boost your ability to deal with challenges

    Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

    The course is broken down into 5 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

    You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

    Once you have completed all 5 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 5 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

    The pass mark for the test is 70%.

    If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

    You can begin the course immediately after your payment has been received. You will create your login details during the checkout process. We will also send you an email confirming your login details.

    We estimate that the course will take about 4 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

    Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

    This course is really good. Easy to read and I found it really enjoyable and interesting as it was full of facts and information relating to the course.

    It is nicely broken up into sections with short tests at the end and it doesn’t feel too overwhelming, feels very manageable.

    I especially like that there is no time limit on completing this course, being a full time mum of two small children my life is pretty hectic so it’s great that whenever I get half an hour free I can sit and do as much or as little as I want.

    I think the Admin and PA Diploma course is absolutely terrific. It gives candidates the chance to develop their skills in the PA and Administration field along with gaining some valuable personal skills along the way. It has given me the boost that I needed to be considered for different job roles in the Administration field and without this my CV would not look as good to potential employers. Giving people the chance to succeed at something they really want to be a part of makes this course brilliant in every way. The layout of each module is set out superbly !

    I am so happy I decided to take this course I would not be where I am now without it.
    Nail diploma school has taught me so much I have a much better understanding of how to start my business and run is successfully.
    Even employers are begging to have me and my clients are swarming after I learnt how to advertise better. A big thanks.

    I've only just started this course but already the content layout and info are spot on. I was only going to do the 1st module the evening I got it but four hours later I had almost completed four! I just couldn't put it down. I have just finished an online aromatherpy course but the massage section was vague so this complements it perfectly I would recommend to anyone. I will be using this as a business but it's also perfect for people to learn for friends and family! So glad I found it. Thank you

    I've been out of the educational loop for the past five years now and was a little worried about starting a new course. All I can say is I certainly had nothing to worry about! Everything was set out so clearly for me to read and it was one of the most informative courses I've ever taken. I've soaked everything in like a sponge! You can't beat knowing you've got all the information sat waiting for you whenever you need a quick recap. Thank you New Skills Academy, my future can now begin thanks to you! I can't wait to get started!
