Synthesizing and Summarizing Information

In this lesson you learn the difference between synthesis and summary. There are articles provided for you to read and practice the difference. This is an important part in communication to make sure you can gather the key information and share it where required. You may be responsible to read changes in legislation or policies and must give a summary of the changes to your team.
