Online Class: Business Communications

We are all in sales and we are all consumers. Even if we are not selling a product or service...we are still selling ourselves in every communication activity that we undertake. Build your future by learning the secrets and skills of communicating effectively. Communicating with friends and relatives is one thing; communicating with anyone else falls into the realm of Business Communications. Think about it: when you are communicating to others, you're either 'Buying' or 'Selling' and the way in which you communicate can tell the person you're talking to, a lot about you: your education level; your intelligence; your needs; your social level. Your skill in communicating can change your future. Enroll today! This is a self-paced, online course. You have 6 months to finish. An instructor will monitor your progress and assess your body of work at course completion. UniversalClass™ offers many wonderful learning tools to help you get the most out of your online course, including an online portfolio service that manages all your course completions.

Course Lessons

Course One: Lesson 1: Introduction to Business Communications - Pick up any newspaper, read any business magazine, look at classified ads; invariably the term communication is used. Communication involves the transfer of meaning. If no information or ideas have been conveyed, communication has not taken place.
Course One: Lesson 2: Communicating in Organizations - We are concerned in this Lesson about both 'How communications take place in and organization' and ' By what standard are these communications made'. These days, "business ethics" is on the top of every employee's mind.
Course One: Lesson 3: Cultural Diversity - Cultural awareness is one of the most important qualities that multi-national organizations look for in their business executives today. In this lesson we will focus on practical principles appropriate for real life business situations.
Course One: Lesson 4: Planning, Writing and Completing Business Messages - Here we prepare you to confront the task of writing Business Messages. Most people spend more time planning their day. Planning your speeches, letters, reports and email ensures that your messages are delivered in the way you intended.
Course One: Lesson 5: Letters, Memos, Emails and Other Routine Messages - All messages are persuasive: Readers and listeners make decisions about you and your organization's ability to do a job, based on these written and spoken messages. This lesson instructs you on how to structure your messages so that they are effective.
