Learners need a Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) between 5-8 in all skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) or equivalent, AND a referral from WELARC to participate in EESE courses.
If you do not have a CLB with a referral to EESE, please phone WELARC at 943-5387 to book an appointment. WELARC is located at 275 Portage Avenue on the 4th floor. You must have a CLB with a referral to EESE to register for an EESE course.
Registration must be in person at EESE. If you are accepted into a course you will receive a letter of acceptance by email. You must receive a letter of acceptance for each course that you register for. You need to reply to the email stating either "I accept." or "Please cancel this registration". If you do not respond within 5 days, your application may be cancelled. If you do not have an email address, please inform our staff when you register. We will call you to confirm your acceptance.
Registration for the February 6 - April 20, 2012 session will begin on December 5 for new students and December 12 for current students.
Presentation Skills
When communication on the job requires you to inform, train, persuade, entertain or sell to others, overcoming the challenges of speaking in public and delivering oral presentations is essential.
Topics in this program include planning, structure, delivery, signposting, audience rapport, using visual aids, reducing anxiety, handling questions and impromptu speaking. Several pronunciation techniques such as pacing, pausing, emphasis, stress, intonation and articulation will also be addressed.
PRE-REQUISITE: Canadian Language Benchmark level of 5 or higher.
