Business Writing Skills (2 Day)

Good writing never goes out of style, and these days the need for clear, effective writing is just as important to the success of your business as it ever was. Especially now, with the increased emphasis on communicating even critical instructions and data by email, effective writing skills are a must. This only adds to the heavy writing demands created by the letters, memos, proposals and technical documents that have been a standard in business for many years.

Our two-day Business Writing Skills seminar is an expanded version of our popular One-Day Business Writing seminar. In this format, we include all of the important information and coaching that have made our one-day event so successful. However, here, we go further, providing more practice and personal coaching to raise your skills to an even higher level. You will gain practical experience working with at least six different types of documents. We will also provide you with specialized instruction to enhance your drafting, writing and editing skills. A highlight of this course is the opportunity for you to bring with you a current writing project and receive one-on-one feedback from our senior writing instructors.
