Year after year, communication consistently appears among the top skills requested by employers. In fact, LinkedIn just published its 2024 report of the most in-demand job skills. Is anyone surprised to see communication in the number one position? Clearly, teaching learners this crucial skill has never been more important.

In this week's episode, we revisit a CERTIFIED Academy: Business webinar from earlier this year. We sat down with Wake Technical Community College educators, Chad McKenzie and Brittany Hochstaetter, and Certiport's own Certiport Success Manager, Jennifer Stubblefield, to discuss the importance of embedding communication teaching into your curriculum. 

Chad, Brittany, and Jennifer shared how you can help empower students with valuable communication and soft skills. You'll also learn how to build students' digital emotional intelligence, making them effective communicators and employees in the modern workplace. Discover new and creative ways to teach this in-demand workforce skill.
