This Continuing Professional Development (CPD) course was designed by the Trinity Centre for Global Intercultural Communications to provide participants with novel methods for successful intercultural collaboration, inclusive management and effective communications across cultures. With an applied focus, participants will learn about perspectives on intercultural collaboration through real case studies and apply these newly developed skills to their own work and contexts.
Upon successful completion, participants will be able to integrate equality, equity, diversity and inclusion perspectives into their work to enhance the intercultural performance of their projects, and they will be able to design an intercultural communication strategy. They will also use these new skills to improve their:
- Intercultural communication.
- Ethical decision-making.
- Multiplatform storytelling.
What Topics will you Cover?
The six weeks of the course are organised into three parts:
Part 1
The first two weeks of this CPD will introduce relevant perspectives on cultural diversity and methods of localisation and multimedia storytelling for intercultural communication. The facilitators will use case studies to illustrate challenges and opportunities in the global workplace.
Part 2
In weeks three and four participants will have the opportunity of seeing how these perspectives and methods work on the ground through the analysis of empirical evidence and case studies from diverse African and Latin American countries that are key partners for Irish organisations and entrepreneurs.
Part 3
During the last two weeks of the course, participants will assess intercultural practices both at the individual level and in the workplace and they will design an intercultural communication strategy.
