Knowledge Network Highlight – Non-verbal Communication for Presenters

Delivering presentations is commonplace in class or at work. Whether or not a presentation is successful in achieving its desired outcomes will depend on both the presenter's verbal and non-verbal presentation skills. This free courseware, Non-verbal Communication for Presenters, will focus on how the non-verbal aspects of a presentation, in particular the use of body language, can affect the way the audience receives information.

Enjoy studying!
