Description

Be a brilliant writer at work

Do you have to write as part of your job? Do you write emails, letters, reports, newslettes, buisness plans, bids, blogs, social media posts or press releases?

Most of us have to write at work - but very few of us have any training in how to do it well. Very few of have even stopped to think about how we can improve what we write. Good writing can boost your career prospects, whether you're looking for work or trying to move up the ladder.

This short but highly effective course introduces you to the techniques that will improve your writing instantly and dramatically.

You'll discover

  • The common mistakes that everyone makes - including you

  • The simple changes that will transform your writing in minutes

  • Easy ways to make your writing more engaging and attention-grabbing

  • How to keep your writing simple but stylish

  • How to replace the jargon, cliches and acronyms that are ruining your writing

  • Quick tips to help you learn to spell ANY word

  • Essential grammar and punctuation to boost your confidence (and impress your boss).

The course uses a mixture of videos and articles and it's very interactive.  Writing is all about doing so we make sure you get plenty of chance to practise with assignments and quizzes.

There's a workbook to download, and we'll provide you with model answers to check when you've done them.

Are you ready to begin?



Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who writes for work - and wants to improve

I'm a journalist with more than 30 years experience of writing for the national press.

I also work as a copywriter and editor.

Journalists have to write clear, concise, engaging copy - and so does anyone who has to write at work.

I  qualified as a trainer and set up The Sentence Works in 2014 to help individuals and companies to transform their writing at work. I've worked with the NHS, local councils, charities, solicitors, entrepreneurs...and London Zoo.
