This Competency Assessment includes two parts. You will analyze professional communication in a team scenario and create a 2- to 3-minute audio response and written script.

What is a script, and how do I write one?

Professional audio recordings require attention to aspects of verbal communication such as vocal tone, variety, pitch, articulation, etc. To create a professional recording, first write a script. You then will have the content to read and can focus on professional delivery.
