Junior FCA Course
Weekly Communication Training for Students
FCA Junior Academy is the place students go to develop the communication skills that are so crucial to success. Success in all walks of life. Such as:
College
The modern campus is not a place where students just sit and take notes anymore. Modern learning is interactive. The students who excel must express themselves clearly and persuasively, both to professors, and other students.
Work
Clear communication is essential, both in creating positive rapport with customers, and in building trust and teamwork within the organization.
Business
Successful business managers and owners must clearly and passionately convey the founding vision of the business in order to infuse in the workers the sense of purpose they need to fulfill that vision.
Life and relationships
So many friendships, and yes, marriages, suffer an erosion of honesty and trust because one or both of the partners simply don’t know how to express their true feelings.
So much of education today lacks balance. Sure, schools teach knowledge. At their best they may even teach analytical thinking skills. But what good is acquiring an education if you cannot clearly, concisely, and passionately express your ideas?
And yet so many young people feel bottled up inside, lacking the confidence and skill to bring into the world the unique knowledge and insight that only they can offer.
With Junior FCA Course this crippling fear ends.
At Junior FCA students learn the excellent communication skills so many young people lack. The very skills which will set them above the pack and give them a clear head start towards success in their young lives.
And in the process, the young person learns so much more:
Self confidence
The freedom to be themselves by being able to effectively deliver a concise and compelling message in any situation.
Sincerity
Honest and direct communication with friends and family that creates trust and improves relationships throughout life.
Self assurance
The ability to use powerful language to stand strong for their principles, and to oppose those things they know are wrong.
Leadership
Only those with a strong, clear, and persuasively delivered message can gain the kind of respect that gets you recognized as a true leader.
