About This Training Course

"This two-day Reports and Proposal Writing workshop introduces the skills that you need to produce reports and proposals that are consistent, concise, sharply focused and easy to understand. We look at the process you need to follow to create a report or proposal. Other topics include structuring your report or proposal so that people can get your message easily.
This training course is ideal for anyone who needs to write persuasively, including:

* account representatives and managers
* business or systems analysts
* technical specialists
* consultants
* sales and marketing professionals
* executive assistants and PAs
* researchers
* financial analysts
* auditors

This workshop is instructor led but requires your input through group discussions as well as group and individual exercises. We deliberately do not use a PC in this course so that we can focus on writing skills for reports and proposals. "
