Writing Skills Training

We provide training in all aspects of business writing skills. We tailor all training to your organisation's requirements. Your staff will take away knowledge and techniques they can - and will - use when back at their desks.

Scientific Report Writing Training - PDF

Business Report Writing Training - PDF

Effective E-mails and Letters - PDF

Grammar and Punctuation - PDF

Writing for Committees - PDF

Proposal Writing for Small Businesses - PDF

Active Participation

Because people learn best when they are actively involved, we don't stand at the front of the room talking to a PowerPoint presentation. Instead, we provide a mixture of discussion, activities and exercises.

Writing Skills Training Prices

The price for a typical one day in-house workshop is £350 per course plus £40 per person. For charities, we reduce the price to £350 per course plus £10 per person.

We can also provide half-day workshops, in-depth two-day training, or modular programmes. Please contact us if you would like an idea of costs for these. We can also arrange follow-up in-depth distance learning.

For training based around very specific writing objectives, such as a particular in-house report or set of correspondence, we'll discuss in detail exactly what you want to achieve. We'll then give you a quote that includes the time it will take to prepare and deliver a workshop or programme that will really meet your needs.

We keep expenses to a minimum, and will include these in our proposal to you so that you have no nasty suprises after the training.

All prices include free access to tutor for advice for 12 months after the course.

Please contact us or call 0845 0523920 to tell us what writing challenges your people face and what help you are looking for.

We promise to listen to you, not sell to you.
