Modern Business Communications

Learn how to write a professional business document to get the right message across.

Whether you’re writing proposals, reports or emails, it’s crucial that you can communicate clearly, concisely and effectively so your audience understands your message.

This workshop will help develop your professional communication skills. You’ll learn to think before you write, be direct, avoid jargon and cluttered thinking, ensure each word contributes to your message, eliminate unnecessary words and sentence, proof your writing for accuracy and read what you’ve written through critical eyes. Formatting is also key; our tutor will cover essential formatting and editing tips to ensure your business communications flow correctly and are presented professionally.

This workshop can be adapted and delivered specifically for your team at our campus or at your workplace. There is no extra fee, however a minimum of six participants is required.

Please note: participants are encouraged to bring a laptop and work they would like guidance on that can be shared with the group.

On completion of this workshop, participants will be eligible to receive one of our digital badges which can be displayed on LinkedIn profiles or in email signatures.
