Communication Skills Courses in Dublin

Hows it going,

I'm researching taking a Communication Skills course in Dublin that covers assertiveness, oral communication and presentation skills. It's something I've often considered taking but finally taking the time to investigate it further.

I'm currently 8 months into a Graduate Programme with an American Multinational and travel to the US fairly regularly for training with one other Irish person. We usually have a weeks training with the rest of the US Graduates all from different backgrounds, Finance, IT, etc.

I would consider myself having good communication skills but it is an eye opener the superiority of American Graduates at presentations, networking etc compared to people I see graduating in Ireland, myself included. It's obvious that communication skills are a large part in their High School or University education and conversely are focused on alot less here. Feel free to post your opinions on this here.

To get back to my original query;
Has anybody here had experience of any communication courses in Ireland? What have you got out of it? Most importantly, would you recommend the agency you went to, or from your experience or from what you heard, whom is the best provider?

Thanks in advance
