This course focuses on developing and delivering clear, well-structured scientific and technical presentations. It is designed for postgraduates and professionals who need to communicate their ideas and conclusions effectively at scientific symposia, in-house workshops, and seminars. The course is tailored for those with a technical background who value innovation, factual accuracy, and conceptual understanding, rather than marketing or sales professionals.

The content is based on a series of voluntary classes I have taught over the years, all aimed at helping participants improve their communication skills. I have successfully delivered this course throughout my 30-year academic career, both at graduate and postgraduate levels, as well as in consultancy work for Saltwork's clients.

Notably, many former students have said this was one of the most valuable courses of their undergraduate years—often more impactful than the specialised postgraduate courses I teach on carbonates and evaporites.

While it's not a design course per se, it incorporates essential elements of design. The primary emphasis remains on conveying your message competently and professionally.
