You’ll practice giving your speech and get feedback on your content, vocabulary, and pronunciation. The second part of the course is about networking events. These are informal meetings to make connections with people in a certain area. You’ll practicemaking “small talk” andyou’ll get better at making conversation and endingconversations. You’ll also know how to dress for success and attend your own networking event. We’re sure your network will grow after you take these steps.
