Results revealed that: There was a statistically significant difference at p<0.01 between the mean scores of the experimental group’s pre-post emotional intelligence inventory in favor of the post administration indicating the effectiveness of the program in developing emotional intelligence. There was a statistical significant difference at p<0.01 between the mean scores of the experimental and the control group in the post administration of emotional intelligence inventory in favor of the experimental group.
