This course has been approved for college credit with College Unbound and the facilitators have been trained to facilitate credit-bearing learning circles. Your course facilitators will provide information about the opportunity to earn college credit.

Please note: You are welcome to participate in this learning circle if you are not in Rhode Island and or do not wish to participate for credit. At this time, credit is only available to learning circles taking place in Rhode Island, USA.

Course materials we'll use

The primary learning resource is a free online course developed by Matt McGarrity from the University of Washington and hosted on Coursera: Introduction to Public Speaking.
