Speaking Lab
The Speaking Lab at Sandhills Community College assists students with oral presentations and other related communication skills. Students may bring any form of speech or presentation for advice, feedback, and coaching on topics including, but not limited to: delivery, outlines, organization, conducting research, audience analysis, and more. The Speaking Lab can assist in all stages of the speechwriting and presenting process, from topic selection to reviewing finished projects.
