This free course explores English language use across a range of professions, drawing on audio and video interviews, video footage of different workplaces and short texts for analysis. Over the six weeks, you’ll look at how language is used in branding, English for academic purposes, organisational culture, health communication, speech and language therapy and mediation. Each week includes activities which guide you in the analysis of oral and written language and help you to reflect on effective communication in professional life.
