A Background to Body Language

‘A Background to Body Language’ aims to help you understand how gestures, postures and the use of personal space combine to form unconscious signals to others about the way we are feeling, or what we are saying, at the time. The course deals with what we mean by body language, its key elements and the benefits of using and interpreting it.

Having completed the course, you will be able to use an understanding of body language to explain intuitive reactions towards others and identify why interpretive skills could improve your personal communication.
