A Guide to Effective Communication

Overview

Every child care professional is aware of the importance of communication in building and maintaining productive relationships with staff, families, and the community. When we don't use effective listening skills, it leads to a breakdown of communication and lack of trust. We developed this course for #teachers and providers to understand how to use effective speaking and listening techniques to use in conversation with the community and colleagues.
