CMNS 4800: Communications for Technical Professions

Formerly CMNS 4810 and WMDD 4860

Succeeding in today's industries requires strong professional and interpersonal communication skills. Students are introduced to fundamental principles of communications including audience analysis, purpose identification, and elements of tone and style. Students prepare to be successful professionals by learning how to promote themselves, how to give meaningful feedback on others' work, and how to work effectively on a team. Students practice a variety of strategies for interpersonal, oral, and written communication, including conveying confident body language, demonstrating dynamic presentation skills, and using persuasive writing techniques.

Registration in this course is restricted to students admitted to the Post-Degree Diploma or Certificate in Data Analytics, or Post-Degree Diploma in Web and Mobile App Design and Development.

Students will receive credit for only one of CMNS 4800, 4810, or WMDD 4860.
