We partner with faculty and staff to support every RC student in developing a core set of professional skills in six broad competency areas via cumulative curricular and co-curricular touchpoints throughout their degree.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We bring skill development opportunities directly into the classroom. Through our teamwork initiatives embedded in key courses, students become successful collaborators, developing interpersonal skills for managing meetings, giving and receiving feedback, and conflict resolution. Our workshops, online modules, and coaching appointments with qualified communications instructors give students the support they need to become effective, persuasive, and professional communicators. Students also learn the benefits of a growth mindset and the importance of acting with integrity. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bringing together all of these opportunities, both inside and outside the classroom, our students graduate with the knowledge and professionalism to launch them into rewarding careers, and the skills to be ready for anything. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-paragraph\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;The six CPS competency areas are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-gallery\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-7 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"160\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Communication-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-160\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"156\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Self-development-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-156\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"164\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Technical-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-164\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"165\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Cognitive-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-165\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"163\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Research-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-163\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"162\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/Interpersonal-1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-162\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"155\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/07\/7-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-155\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-spacer\">\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-feature\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/for-faculty\/for-faculty\/\" class=\"card-feature \" target=\"_self\">\n\t<span\n\t\tclass=\"card-feature-image\"\n\t\t style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/scott-scaled-e1689969019944-992x558-1.jpeg); border-bottom: 8px solid #09AD87\"\t\trole=\"img\"\n\t>\n\t<\/span>\n\t<span class=\"card-feature-body\">\n\t\t\t\t<span \n\t\t\tclass=\"card-feature-body-title \"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\tFor faculty\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/a>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"block-wrapper block-wrapper-feature\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/for-students\/for-students\/\" class=\"card-feature \" target=\"_self\">\n\t<span\n\t\tclass=\"card-feature-image\"\n\t\t style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/rotmancommerce.utoronto.ca\/centre-for-professional-skills\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/TAM04927_408x230.jpeg); border-bottom: 8px solid #09AD87\"\t\trole=\"img\"\n\t>\n\t<\/span>\n\t<span class=\"card-feature-body\">\n\t\t\t\t<span \n\t\t\tclass=\"card-feature-body-title \"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\tFor students\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/a>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Centre for Professional Skills Collaborate.
