Essential writing skills

21 November 2006
With: Eve Baker

With the widespread use of advanced communication systems and fewer support staff, effective writing skill has become essential for all organisations. Many of us have to write concise and informative documents with persuasive arguments, often to meet tight deadlines, although we may not have studied the use of English language since secondary or higher education. During this two-day course participants will practice and understand the relevant rules of grammar and tone and construction of workplace documents. This course will also specifically look at: agendas, minutes, letters, reports and proposals or bids.

This course can be tailored to meet your specific needs and delivered in-house.

Comments from previous courses:

“I found all aspects very useful – especially the fog index and mind mapping. These are new things and were very helpful”

“In writing it was useful just to learn to write a structural report. In minute taking it was getting to know the format and layout”

“I feel confident and motivated, can’t wait to apply the skills”

“I feel more confident and motivated after this session”

“The trainer was good – very clear and patient. The inclusion of a lot of exercises was motivating”

“She made me more relaxed, so I learned a lot. The guidelines are so useful for future reference”
