Communicating via Video Call (Main)
We do not solely use our devices to communicate in written form. Rather, most professional interactions with employers or other professionals are conducted via video call. Video calls can also be a useful tool to communicate with friends and family who are far away. In this class, Digital Navigators will share ways to promote your ability to communicate with professionals, extend communication means with family and friends, and take advantage of online opportunities and resources with concrete examples.
This class will be delivered by a DOORS program instructor. To learn more about the DOORS program please go to: https://www.digitalpsych.org/doors-program.html
