Disgrifiad cryno

This module aims to explain the human communication process and identify effective communication skills for both academic and professional workplace practices.

We spend about three quarters of our lives communicating but this quantity is no guarantee of quality. For example you may have experienced communications, which resulted in unsatisfactory work conditions, an unhappy marriage or arguments with you children. Indeed, for over 60,000 years people have been communicating. Yet we still feel the need, perhaps more than ever, to find ways to improve our communication skills.
