Whether you’re writing an email or a complex business pitch, the Written and Visual Communication course will teach you how to hook your audience and present your ideas in a memorable way. Learn the fundamentals of narrative and graphic design to tell compelling stories and add a distinct visual flair to your professional communications.
Crafting a meaningful narrative and incorporating typography, the use of color, and strategic imagery can make a lasting impression on your audience and motivate them to respond to your message. For JHU benefits eligible faculty and staff members only: If you are a full-time, benefits-eligible faculty or staff member who has been employed by JHU for at least 120 days, and continue in a full-time position while enrolled in courses, you are eligible to receive tuition remission. This benefit covers only noncredit courses offered through a Continuing Education Unit of one of JHU’s academic divisions, the Berman Institute, Institute for Clinical and Translational Research, Sheridan Libraries, or Executive Programs offered through the Carey Business School. This plan is available to full-time faculty, staff, and bargaining unit members only. Retirees are not eligible for this benefit. You receive 100% remission if your department certifies the course benefits your professional development and your department is willing to pay if you do not attend the course or if you cancel with less than one week’s notice. The one-week cancellation notice is waived only for emergencies with written documentation. There is an annual limit of 2 classes per calendar year for noncredit professional development courses taken at JHU (effective 2023).
