Business Writing Skills Training Workshop

This workshop is intended to provide delegates with a full understanding of how to write correct, easy to understand English in a variety of styles. It covers an understanding of grammatical structure and punctuation, but is focused on the importance of effectiveness when writing.

The course is designed to be as interactive as possible, providing the delegates with regular opportunities for discussion and activity. Written exercises are frequent but not all are individual. Regular use is made of well-written articles to provide delegates with both critical analysis tools and examples of effective writing techniques to incorporate into their own writing.
