Programme overview

Reports are a vital part of communication and decision making. Getting this right can be stressful and time consuming.  Many reports remain unread because they contain too much information, are poorly structured or overly technical. This course provides delegates with a methodical approach to report writing and helps them to create clear, concise and convincing reports which are easy to read.

Learning outcomes:

Workshop Objectives include:

  • Learn the value of good written communications.
  • Develop paragraphs that introduce, connect, develop, and conclude some part of an idea.
