Onsite Business Writing Workshop Agenda
Times are approximate, and based upon average group size and typical participant needs. Workshops commonly are adjusted to reflect the composition and requirements of the group.
8:30 a.m. - 12:00 noon (breaks included)
Section 1: Grammar and Punctuation Roundup
Participants rediscover the grammar, syntax, and punctuation rules that define clear and correct writing. Not only are these rules often forgotten, they change over time, making this refresher session valuable to professionals at all levels.
1:00 - 2:15
Section 2: Business Usage
Participants work beyond "correct" to create writing that's "compelling." Through vivid examples and demanding practice sessions, students learn to leverage the active voice, use modifiers, normalize their paragraphs, and avoid common taboos.
2:30 - 3:30
Section 3: Business Writing Applications
Participants further refine the professional edge of their writing style through this highly interactive exploration of tone, clarity, and conciseness. The techniques for self-editing in this section yield immediate and significant results for all professionals.
3:45 - 4:30
Section 4: Review and Continued Growth
Before launching off into the wild ink yonder, participants will tour the remaining resources of their workshop reference guides. They'll learn how and when to apply the "Five C" Checklist, review the 100 Most Misspelled Words, learn Ten Tips for Effective E-mail, and get Writing Tips from the Pros. Your facilitator will review and reinforce course essentials and provide resources for continued professional growth.
Optional Second Day: Applied Writing Lab Supplement
