Report Writing (2 days)

Description

You may know the principles of effective report writing. But do you know how to make those principles work for you, for the reports that you write, and for the audience who needs them? This intensive, 2-day report writing workshop will teach you the 'how' rather than the 'what' of report writing.

This workshop uses laptops (provided) and includes more time for practical work and self-review. It is interactive, practical, and fun. We'll focus on what works and share our ideas and experience, using group feedback and sample documents as appropriate.

Who this training is for

The content of the Report Writing workshop is designed for those who write long or complex reports, including management and board reports, and letter reports.

We recommend that you attend our Business Writing course before doing the Report Writing course.
