South Georgia Technical College’s Cordele campus held a Q.E.P. (Quality Enhancement Plan) workshop focusing on the importance of Effective Communication and the various ways communication has an impact on people’s lives. The event was held in the LaPorte Auditorium at the SGTC Crisp County Center and was designed to focus on the soft skills students need to be successful in the workplace.

Tammy Hamilton, Accounting Instructor and Q.E.P. committee member, led the workshop. Hamilton opened the session with the simple question “What is Effective Communication” to engage students in the theme of the event.

Communication is categorized into four main types: verbal, nonverbal, written, and visual. Students in the workshop participated in role playing exercises to explore the different types of communication and how important communication is to daily life.
