Ideal for report-writers, administrative officers, training material developers and writers of all kinds, this practical, activity-based workshop can be run as a half-day or full-day session.
It focuses on the various skills involved in writing clearly and, above all, concisely. Participants are quickly involved in reducing the length of pieces of text – these can be provided by us or drawn from the participants’ own work environment. During the full-day version of the workshop, participants will practise:
- Identifying key and secondary points in a text
- Reducing wordiness
- Sentence reformulation
- Sentence combining
- The art of writing précis
The half-day session can be tailored to cover some of these points, or the same points with less practice.
