IS it worth coughing money out of your pockets to attain communication skills? Communication is very important in our day-to-day lives. However, not so many people enroll in schools or institutions of higher learning just to attain the skills.
In most cases, the skills are attained in the process of learning other disciplines. For those with poor communication skills, you can try out Major Communication Consultants at Bat Valley Primary School, Kampala.
Early this year, Joseph Richard Magongo decided to start a school to train people in public speaking and presentation, effective writing, management and administration, TV/Radio presenting and reporting, sales and marketing skills.
Magongo said the short courses offered are effective and can enable one to fit in varied communication situations and cope with the prevailing times that demand for need to communicate effectively. He told Education Vision, “The ability to communicate effectively places one above others at the work place, in your day to day communications and business.â€
The company also offers services of speech writing, speech editing, report writing, training of staff, rapportoeuring, editing documents, C.V writing.
Magongo said the courses last five weeks. They climax with an assessment week. He said the course objectives are, to equip people with effective communication skills, improve their efficiency at work through improved communication, and make them irresistible to an organisation.
Other objectives are to make the administrative side of people’s jobs easier and make people fit in any communication situation.
“The course is meant for any one who would like his/her communication skills improved. We also target people working but need to improve their skills,†he said.
Training is done in sessions from 2:00pm-4:00pm and 5:00pm - 7:00pm. He said about 40 students have been passed out. A session of this month started on September 22.
Magongo said most of the students are interested in public speaking, management and administration. Some of the people Magongo thinks need the skills are radio/TV presenters, news readers, sales person, public relations officers, secretaries, receptionists, administrators, managers, and researchers.
The marketing manager Nelson Byamugisha said the students decide what skills to attain. He said at the end of training, all students get certificates in the skills they have attained.
