Good business writing is spare, clear, precise and concise. Readers notice when subjects and verbs don't agree, punctuation misses the point or the content is confusing. This 60-minute business writing training shows how a few basic grammar, punctuation and usage rules can make your documents clearer and shorter.
You'll work on specific words instead of generalities, active vs passive voice, and cutting unnecessary words, doublets, wordy habit phrases, dependent clauses, connecting words and “due to” explanations.
The session then covers building well-organized arguments: introductions and summaries, avoiding elevator analysis, and ordering facts, interpretations and evaluations. Extra tips cover rounding numbers, acronyms and cutting “of” and parentheses. No English degree is needed.
Many people had little formal training in practical grammar, punctuation and logical development, and good writing takes practice. This session helps you sharpen the skills you already have.
It is useful for lenders, credit analysts and managers, loan review and work-out officers, senior lending and credit officers, bank executives and directors, and also auditors, loan administrators, marketing, retail and operations staff who need to explain or persuade in writing.
