Description
No one can be a perfectionist because no one is perfect. And perfectionism is an occupational hazard of the gifted. Although giftedness and perfectionism often go hand-in-hand, perfectionism can have many “faces” and may look different in each individual. In this engaging and practical course, Lisa Van Gemert, M.Ed.T., explains how damaging perfectionism can be and how its strengths can be harnessed for good.
In this 1-hour course you will learn to:
- Identify the five faces of perfectionism in gifted children
- Build strategies to change perfectionism from unhealthy to healthy
- Classify global failure from beneficial adversity
- Utilize Barbara Clark’s model for overcoming failure

This course was a lot! This could have been broken up in to 2 courses. There is a TON to remember and takes way more than an hour to complete due to the short answers throughout the entire video.

It was great training
Alyssa – DELAWARE CITY (verified owner) –
I liked the information given in this course. The way it was given was less than organized and didn’t seem to have a flow to it. This also should have been way more than only ONE credit hour. This took me at least 2-3 hours to complete.
