"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 style. Only a few days after the course, my line manager congratulated me on the improvements I made!"

Why attend a Writing with Impact course? It is not sufficient to write competently, in order to ensure that your communication is read and acted upon you need to write with impact. While a document may be correctly written and well structured, there is often a distinct absence of the sophisticated and targeted language necessary to influence, inspire and persuade. What is more, the correct use of register, tone and degree of warmth is often missing which can seriously impact how your message is received and acted upon.
