*WITC Articulation

Because careers demand a variety of communication skills, this semester course emphasizes the development of effective speaking, reading, writing, and listening skills. In written communication, practice is provided for developing proficiency in the use of capitalization, punctuation, abbreviation, vocabulary and grammar. Application of these skills is stressed in letter, memo, and report writing. Brief oral reports are given by the students to improve their speaking and listening competencies. This course also includes independent reading. *Completion of this class with a grade of an A- or better along with the completion of Keyboarding entitles you to ―transfer‖ 2 credits to WITC in place of taking their Written Communications class
