In this course we will look at what business writing is, how to do it and how to do it well. Although business writing can seem a little overwhelming to begin with, it can be relatively easy to learn – once you understand the basics of what is required.
What you will learn:
- Introduction – why it’s important and the benefits of good business writing, back to basics with grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
- Writing with impact – be clear, write less, active verbs, setting the tone, using positive versus negative language, condescension, cliches and jargon, writing with your reader in mind, non- sexist language.
- Structure and style – knowing your audience and knowing your purpose.
