Catherine Dohou, Foreign & Commonwealth Office (UK)

"I found the Effective Writing course beneficial because it allowed me to learn how to plan my drafting, and how to develop a clear, concise and accurate writing."

Why effective writing training? In today’s busy working environment it is essential to produce clear, reader-friendly effective business writing to tight deadlines.  Many professionals working in large international companies have excellent spoken communication skills but lack confidence when writing business documents.  

Communicaid’s Effective Writing Training courses will enable delegates to professionalise their writing skills through presentation and discussion of key elements of effective writing such as planning, style, audience awareness, punctuation and language choice.  You will also analyse and practise writing a range of documents including professional correspondence, business reports, tenders and proposals. Upon completion of a Communicaid Effective Writing Training course you will produce more professional and effective writing that reflects positively on you and your organisation.
