Course description
Communication is sort of everything, but that does not mean it is easy. Whether in relationships, at work, or on a dating app, we make lots of communication errors that can be overcome. This course will give you a theoretical and practical understanding of the psychology of communication skills and their application in everyday life, conflict management, dating, the workplace, intergroup situations, and even in how you talk to yourself! The course is designed to give you an exciting scientific overview of, and basic working competence in, communication skills.
