Communication Skills at Work

About the Program

This online training program aims to increase your professional effectiveness in the workplace by teaching key communication skills.

Communication skills are essential for healthy and successful relationships, whether personal or professional. Once you’ve learned how to apply them, these skills enhance your influence and help you achieve your goals. Effective communication is always a challenge, and when diverse cultures are introduced, good communication can become even more challenging. Good communicators have an advantage in the workplace, especially if their relationships are based on rapport-building trust and credibility. But trust and credibility are not the only essentials. You also need to use specific communication behaviors to project confidence in all your verbal and nonverbal interactions.

This program is self-paced. Self-paced programs create a unique learning experience that allows students to learn independently and at a pace that best suits them.
