    Overall, my Communications diploma has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to effectively communicate with people from all walks of life and to drive positive change in both business and society. I continue to apply these skills in my professional life, whether it's in marketing, public relations, or project management. I continue to use the skills I learned during my career to create effective social media strategies for businesses and to help them achieve their marketing goals.
