This course will show how to analyze a person’s nonverbal behavior through the different expressive channels and how to do it rigorously with the Nonverbal Behavior Analysis Matrix (NBAM). It will also show how personality is configured and how it affects behavior, through the PEN model, DISC and indirect profiling.
Finally, the student will learn how to analyze the different facial movements through the prestigious FACS program for facial expression coding.
In addition to the flexibility and the latest technology in virtual learning, the student will have a personalized tutor who will help and assist them during the development of the course.
