The Power of Language – CQU
The language around Scope of Practice and Duty of Care can be wordy and confusing. Yet, if you are able to fully understand and confidently articulate it to others, then your level of professionalism will be increased ten-fold.
This online micro-credential will clarify the difference between sympathy and empathy, and provide an understanding of the nuances of your language, which can translate into powerful questioning and strong relationships between yourself and your clients.
This is a non-creditable micro-credential which is awarded a digital badge and Certificate of Completion which can be shared to your social networks and displayed in your professional portfolio.
