Overview

About this course.

Does your business writing clearly communicate your message or could it be costing you time, credibility and results?

In today’s fast-paced business environment, emails, reports, proposals and other written communications often represent the organisation before a professional ever enters the room. The ability to write clearly, concisely and persuasively is therefore an essential professional skill. Strong business writing helps professionals communicate ideas effectively, influence decisions and achieve desired outcomes.

Effective Business Writing is a practical online workshop designed to strengthen participants’ ability to create professional, reader-focused business documents. Participants will explore the writing process, document structure, business language, clarity, brevity and readability, while developing practical techniques for producing effective internal correspondence, HR documents, business development materials, emails and proposals.
