The course Communication and Presentation Skills in Professional Environment is created to develop the today’s extremely important soft skills that are used not just in professional environment, but also in everyday life. The lectures will demonstrate the latest scientific results connected with the phenomena of communication and presentation (performance) in the interdisciplinary frame where the aspects of philosophy, sociology and psychology will meet the innovative approaches to the subject from the field of art. In order to train the participants, the activities are divided into three categories:

1. lectures
2. interactive discussion with participants
3. practical exercises in the application of previously presented skills

The participants will learn and practice successful  ommunication and presentation through various interactive concepts. Understanding communication skills through verbal and visual content, will facilitate the mastery of the participants in creating suitable presentation (Ppt or Prezi).

Upon completion of the course, participants should have enhanced their personal ability to communicate and present with professional rhetoric and have a working knowledge of their individual communication preferences and styles. An additional focus of the training is to familiarize participants with the knowledge of nonverbal communication that humans use in everyday life. The consciousness of how our body works while we are communicating (the theory of gestures) helps to understand others and helps to create clear ideas to our audiences. This is especially important since we are presenting our messages in more and more culturally diverse and complex environment. A special lecture will be devoted to the so-called “accessible communications” that include knowledge about the importance of creating the “communicational environment” suitable for persons with special needs, too.
