Synopsis

Communication competencies are among the most coveted skills on the planet―whether applied in the workplace, social settings, or at home.

Recently revised to emphasize e-Learning and web-based training during the COVID-19 pandemic, the NEW third edition of Training and Development features a robust  discussion of e-Learning methods throughout the publication, a new chapter dedicated to Using Web Training for e-Learning, and strategies for presenting training online using e-Learning methods.
