Communication
COMM 1103 - Introduction to Business and Technical Communication
This communication course teaches practical business communication techniques for planning, organizing, selecting, writing, and presenting information in business or industry. It covers routine memos, letters, request and reply letters, and oral presentations. It is equivalent to most full-time diploma program level 1 COMM courses at BCIT. Prerequisite: Students must have one of the following: 1) English 12 "C+" or equivalent http://www.bcit.ca/admission/upgrading/englishproficiency.shtml ; or 2) COMM 0015/COMM 0045 score of 70 or better. Students who wish to confirm their English level are strongly advised to take COMM 0015. Students do not need to submit transcripts for entrance to this course. BUT, in the case of formal or informal grade appeals or reviews they will be asked to show proof of their English Prerequisites. NOTE: COMM 1106 (equivalent to COMM 1103/COMM 1120) offers additional language support and is strongly recommended for any students scoring below "C+" on English 12; COMM 1106, with one additional hour per week, offers a slower pace and more English language review. (3 Credits)
