Effective Writing Skills
Live Instructor-Led Classroom Training

Learn how to meet the challenge of "putting it in writing" — whether you're writing letters, memos, e-mails, proposals, or other documents. This 2-day workshop is designed to give you the confidence to master what people struggle with the most: how to think clearly and write what you mean.

If you can't get your point across concisely, you risk losing or confusing your readers. If you can't learn to edit yourself, you risk looking sloppy and unprofessional — an image that could extend to your company when you communicate with vendors or new potential customers. To be sure, written communication gives you more time to think than a hurried conversation at the coffee pot or over the phone — but you should use that time wisely.

In this 2-day workshop, lecturing is kept to a minimum in favor of an emphasis on realistic writing exercises on topics relevant to your workplace. You will engage in constant peer review and be encouraged to share your writing problems and occasional successes. In all cases, the instructor will take a careful look at each writer's work and offer detailed advice. The instructor will address any other problems that crop up in the writing exercises.

Who Should Attend

Managers, technical professionals, analysts, marketing team members, administrative staff — everyone in your organization who has to communicate their ideas throughout the work day.
