Course description
High-Impact Business Writing In-house Course
This in-house High-impact business writing course will help your teams write internal and external documents and communications that are clear and effective. From documents, letters and reports to bids and emails, writing is a constant in any business's operations. This bespoke in-house course addresses the unique needs of each team or company, and improves their members' writing skills.
This course is taught with a learn-by-doing approach, allowing your team to practise new skills in real time. Your team will learn to write in a way that is organised, confident and impactful. Delegates will work in small groups and receive individual support to brush up on their grammar, and learn techniques for warding off procrastination and writers' block and writing in a way that is reader-focused and audience-appropriate.
The course includes a pre-course writing analysis and post-course support for each participant and is designed to be specific to the writing requirements of each team or company. That means using relevant examples and homing in on the writing techniques that matter most.

I think the pace was great, enough time to think on tasks and ask questions on what had been covered. David was really clear yet personable and kept the training upbeat.
