The programme is highly practical and fun and covers every aspect of writing from word choice and suitability to document layout and content development. It focuses on making old, difficult grammar problems into something you no longer dread, and offers plenty of practice to master these new techniques.You are shown how to "grab" your reader's attention and to eliminate nonessential words from your writing. Email etiquette is discussed, and useful guidelines given regarding this, and business letter writing.

This is an intensive programme, but you will undoubtedly leave with a fresh perspective , and many answers to problem in the use of English for business. The results are tangible, easily measured and learner-centered. Although the programme is aimed largely at people who speak English as a second language, it is equally valuable to first language speakers.
