Writing Workshops
Courses to help you write clearly and persuasively. |
Communication skills are the key to efficient and effective operations in business and government. New employees should brush-up on their basic written communication
and plain English skills, while experienced professionals, burdened by the additional workload caused by downsizing and budget cuts, can also benefit
refreshing skills.
Our writing courses
have been described as "really about how to get
better
job reviews and get promoted" because they help you
improve one of your most important, and visible, job
skills: written communication.
|
These courses are
open to the public and are also available as custom, onsite
training |
|
For starters, attend
our two-day Word
Workshop--made up of two one-day writing courses. Lessons focus on writing as a process and ways to apply that process to everyday assignments.
