Master the Art of Clear & Effective Communication
Without clear communication, nothing would get done. This program aims to help professional writers, students considering an academic career, and high school teachers understand how to employ language to create progress. Learn practical skills and theories to support or challenge workplace practices, understand rhetoric and how it applies to academia, or add technical communication classes to your teaching repertoire.
The same faculty who teach at Utah State University's main campus also teach the online courses. They are trained and experienced as technical writers and professional communicators who actively research in their fields of expertise. You will be able to immediately apply what you learn in your current career.
