Students will learn how to use non-verbal communication to enhance the delivery of their message, how to plan and prepare for a presentation, and how to objectively evaluate their presentations in order to work toward constant improvement.   This course is beneficial to any employee who might present information to the public, other government employees, or elected officials.  The skills provided in this course are vital to professional development and advancement.
