How would you rate the communication skills of students today? A 2022 report from the National Association of Colleges and Employers says 96.8% of college students believe communication is the most important career-ready competency. And while students see the importance, they don't always get to adequately develop those skills before entering the workplace. In fact, a 2023 study from NACE showed that only 46.9% of employers would rate students as very/extremely proficient in communication.Good news:#GeauxCommunicatecan help students build the skills to be an effective communicator in any field while atLouisiana State University!

Effective communication is vital to teaching and learning. This is why LSU will be expanding its award-winning communication-intensive programming across campus through the Geaux Communicate initiative. LSU’s goal with this initiative is for all undergraduate students—regardless of their major—to have access to communication-intensive classes and learning support services that will set them up for success, while expanding support for teaching faculty at the forefront of making this happen.Learn more atlsu.edu/geaux-communicateand#GeauxCommunicate!
