Urgent Decision Making
Training the Unconscious Mind to Make Better Decisions when Seconds Count
Created primarily for pilots, this course discusses three kinds of decision making, but focuses on urgent decision making. The course draws from recent research on how the unconscious mind can influence decision making and how it can be trained to make better decisions when seconds matter.
The course consists primarily of video lectures and will require approximately 40 minutes to complete. To earn FAA wings credit, an online quiz must be successfully completed.
