Hi all
I have been tasked with writing a course on cultural communication and I would like some help. I have been doing a lot research but am feeling quite overwhelmed. Does anyone have any suggestions on what should be included/excluded and any useful material?
Thankyou
Jasmin

Objectives
Hi Jasmin
Before you can do anything you need to have some very clear, specific objectives to determin what exactly needs to be achieved by this course.
I guess the only person who could help with that is the person/s who asked you to do it.
When you have your objectives the rest is easy…or easier for us to help you with ideas.
I have lots of information on objective writing if you need it.
Good luck
Steve

Hi Steve
Thankyou for replying. I have pre-empted the need to find out what the objectives are so have already arranged to discuss these! Do you have an email address I can contact you on if I need some further guidance?
