According to Ms. Cathy McWilliam, communication skills are very important, conveying policies vividly to the audience requires a lot of skills. The training course is a great opportunity for students to learn and exchange skills in building recommendations for senior leaders.

The training course took place in a lively atmosphere of exchange between students and speakers, with lively practice exercises, through which each student had the opportunity to improve their skills and knowledge to "transform" and become more confident in the process of building speeches for senior leaders.
