This course is designed to help you get the salary you are looking for, by teaching you how and what to ask for. For maximum learning, this includes interactive exercises and an AI-powered roleplay scenario in which you can practice negotiating a new salary.

Learning negotiation skills can have a huge impact on your career - from negotiating your starting salary to confidently asking for that next raise or promotion.

During this course, you'll learn how to negotiate your starting salary, how to navigate a compensation adjustment, and how to confidently ask for what you want.

We'll also have a section that will dive a little deeper into what it means to negotiate as a woman and how to combat a common bias known as the Likability Backlash.

By the end of this course, you'll have a framework that you can use for any negotiation. You'll also have an opportunity to try out your negotiation skills with some interactive practice exercises, so you go into your negotiation feeling confident.
