Customized Business and Technical Writing

Any business that needs immediate and practical help with written documents and oral presentations should consider our in-house training. Our experienced instructors come to your workplace, and you decide the topics covered and length of the workshop for a group of employees.

Simply choose which areas you would like the group to cover and we will custom-design a course for your organization. Using samples of writing from your company, the instructors will provide course materials and feedback.

The topics most often requested include:

  • overcoming barriers to interpersonal communication

  • organizing and gathering evidence for reports
  • writing effective reports and proposals
  • writing effective memos, emails and business letters

  • editing for English as an additional language errors.

Fees vary according to the number of participants, length of the course and type of workshop.
