Learners work through articles, lectures, and videos that explain communication models, audience analysis techniques, and the mechanics of writing and presenting clearly in a workplace setting.

As with other Saylor courses, US college-credit recommendation applies to the ACE/NCCRS system and is not a substitute for South African university credit, but the skills and certificate are useful, verifiable additions to a CV or LinkedIn profile.
