Certificate in Business Communications

Language: English

Short Description: Because corporate higher-ups and stakeholders can’t support your ideas—or recognize you for them—without first understanding what they are, communicating clearly and concisely in written and oral formats is critical to your professional success.

From clarifying and structuring your ideas to designing the PowerPoint slides that will best complement them, the techniques, interactive exercises, and checklists in this suite will help you create presentations and workplace documents that inform and persuade.

The course offers instruction on crafting many of the most common business communication formats: memos, reports, brochures, proposals, presentations, catalogs, and websites. Topics include formal and informal outlining techniques, using e-mail appropriately in an organizational setting, and revising for wordiness, unnecessary phrases, redundancy, and jargon.

Instructor Description: This course has a support helpdesk feature. Learners have the ability to submit questions directly to a support rep who can answer questions on the curriculum and any registration or technical questions.
