Learning Objectives:

In today’s globalized business world, the ability to communicate effectively in English has become indispensable. At the same time, English has undergone a major demographic transformation; its most widespread use is noa among speakers who have different first languages. This means that communicators must be highly aware of the context of communicative acts, adapt their style accordingly, and be able to craft clear, unambiguous, and appropriate messages in a wide variety of situations. EPC3, therefore, is not a traditional language course but takes a skills-focused approach to help students become successful communicators in international business encounters.
