Course Description
Byte size learning skills course of 1 comprehensive session
Communication is of vital importance in an organisation. This communication can take many forms. In this course, we look at the written form, and how to get the maximum benefit from your business writing whether it is a short memo, a letter or a formal report. This will also help you with all your written communication including preparing assignments in your study programme.
The key to improving any written communication is practice, so you will find several writing exercises to complete. You should do these with care. However, in some of the activities you will be writing using the case study approach.
The skills you will learn in this course will also help you in everyday life - writing letters to your bank manager, or requesting information on a particular company product, or to complain about the accommodation on your dream holiday.
Tutor Support
With this course you will have unlimited access to your own personal tutor who specialises in their field of study. It is your personal tutor's role to ensure that you receive constructive feedback and to deal with any queries you may have. You are more than welcome to telephone, fax or email your personal tutor.
You will also have access to a dedicated and friendly team of administrators and course advisors who offer sound and professional guidance and advice when you need it. This ensures that you will never feel neglected and that you will always succeed!
Assessment Method
After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking. This method of continual assessment ensures that your personal tutor can consistently monitor your progress and provide you with assistance throughout the duration of the course.
