Whether we communicate from behind a screen or face to face, strong interpersonal skills allow us to share ideas, points of view, expertise, and information effectively.

Precisely as I expected the course to be, short and concise with a fair testing system, I very much found this course to be simple and clear with proper and understandable instruction

It was a great learning experience which will really be helpful me in my future course. There were certain aspects of interpersonal and communication that I wasn’t aware of and got to know during the course. The course had a step by step break up of what is to be taught with exercises which helped me in taking actions. I highly recommend everyone to take up the course if they get an opportunity to.

This course has been terrfically amazing for me and definitly for my career. I have always been a student very shy and naive in usinb technological work. The best example is that I used to prefer only hand written assignments during my studies but now due to this course I am so much comfortable in making digital assignments and using for other tasks. This course surely has made me smart.

bonjour ,

Ce cours a été formidablement incroyable pour moi et définitivement pour ma carrière. J'ai toujours été un étudiant très timide et naïf dans l'utilisation du travail technologique. Le meilleur exemple est que j'avais l'habitude de préférer uniquement les devoirs écrits à la main pendant mes études, mais maintenant, grâce à ce cours, je suis tellement à l'aise pour faire des devoirs numériques et les utiliser pour d'autres tâches. Ce cours m'a sûrement rendu intelligent.

A rather pragmatic online course imbibing the learner-participant on the right approach and technique in doing an effective presentation or communication to others. A must-attend course for those, who are keen to hone their skills and mindsets when communicating with others, especially with the intention to clinch important business deals for the organization they represent.

I did not find the course useful at all. It seemed like they put together some very basic articles and audios in a scattered manner without proper system of feedback.
