Schools
ACCI receives constant comments in evaluations from graduates that they wished they had been taught these cognitive skills in school. They felt that this type of cognitive training would have helped them make better choices. Unfortunately most school systems work inside the box and don't understand the far-reaching positive effects of cognitive restructuring. The number one reason for under achievement is students' self-defeating thoughts, emotions, feelings, attitudes, behaviors and resulting negative consequences. Requiring a cognitive life skills course as part of school curriculum, would boost test scores, reduce contention, increase compliance, and help students make better decisions in their lives.
A major theme in ACCI workbooks is that you are many times more capable and talented than you think you are. Don't trust your thoughts, they could be wrong. The bottom line is ACCI workbooks are a less intrusive and costly method to instantly change many of the problems facing today's schools. Try it and discover it for yourself.
Suggested workbooks: You can't teach cognitive skills to children who are not yet cognitive. ACCI youth workbooks were designed for ages 13 - 18.
