Bottom line

Udemy is great for learning concepts cheaply and getting a certificate to display. But if you've already watched a Udemy course on negotiation and still freeze up in the room, Commy is what's missing. Communication is a performance skill — like a sport or musical instrument. You improve by doing, with feedback, not by watching someone else do it. Commy is the practice rep layer that Udemy doesn't offer.
