Communication - #2
NACE Career Readiness Competencies
According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, "Communication is clearly and effectively exchanging information, ideas, facts, and perspectives with persons inside and outside of an organization." Here are three steps you can take as a Duke to get career-ready:
- Proofread online and written communication
- Develop and deliver a presentation for a class
- Check for understanding by asking clarifying questions
