Are you ready to enhance your intercultural skills? Join us for Exploring Intercultural Communication Styles, an interactive training session designed to help faculty, staff, scholars, and graduate teaching assistants navigate various intercultural communication skills. 

This session explores key communication styles, including direct vs. indirect, linear vs. nonlinear, affective vs. neutral, and more. Participants will learn how adapting to different communication approaches can lead to more effective interactions. 

This training is open to faculty, staff, and international scholars. Registration is required!


About GUIDE: Global Understanding, Intercultural Development, and Engagement Sessions

The GUIDE Sessions provide professional learning opportunities for faculty, staff, and scholars who want to strengthen their ability to work effectively across cultures and support international students and colleagues. These interactive sessions offer practical tools grounded in intercultural research, helping participants refine their communication skills, deepen cultural understanding, and create more inclusive academic and workplace environments.

GUIDE Sessions are open to all campus professionals and do not require prior experience with intercultural training. Participants are encouraged to attend multiple GUIDE sessions to build a well-rounded foundation in intercultural competence.
