Course Description:

For the first time ever, our signature course, "Excellence In Speaking Institute", is offering a special, limited-seating class for young adults, located at the world-class US National Whitewater Center.

This two-day course presents an overview of the fundamentals of effective communication, presentation skills, listening skills, and the tools to engage with others, specifically designed for the younger generation. Limited to a small group for maximum effectiveness and involvement, this course concentrates on arguably the most important business and life skill: communicating more effectively.

Participants will learn in a classroom setting, having several opportunities throughout the day to present on their feet, while also taking the learning experience into the great outdoors through an adventure course comprised of ziplines, platforms, and rope bridges that encourages problem solving and trust.

Expected Outcomes:

Participants are given proven techniques for preparing and delivering compelling presentations, new tools for effective communication, and will develop their authentic speaking style and learn how to tell their own unique story. At the end, students leave with a course workbook, Ty Boyd’s book of tips, techniques, and strategies, and access to several of their videotaped speeches. These tools serve as exceptional resources for further study.

Attendees are sure to leave with skills that will set them apart from the start. Whether entering the workforce for the first time, interviewing for internships, scholarships, or a job, the graduates of ESI for Young Adults will walk away with a greater sense of confidence, project a stronger presence in a room, and will be able to powerfully communicate their ideas, knowledge, and competence with the world.
