This course is designed for anyone who needs to write in a clear and professional manner but finds that they have gaps
in their understanding of grammar and punctuation.
Knowing how to use grammar accurately is vital to success at work. Mistakes are embarrassing, make a poor impression
on managers and colleagues, and damage customer relations.
A survey by Royal Mail in 2005 indicated that grammatical errors and spelling mistakes cost UK businesses £41 billion
in lost sales. Almost a third of people questioned said they wouldn't buy products or services from companies that used
poor spelling or grammar.
If you are preparing a letter, report, proposal, brochure, job application or any other formal document, you can't
afford to make mistakes. The Grammar at Work course will fill the holes in your knowledge, boost your confidence and
help you to write in a clear and professional manner.
We will review the rules in a straightforward and supportive way, with the minimum of jargon; it really won't feel
like being back at school. Examples from business documents and newspapers will help you to see why grammar and
punctuation matter and how they apply to your everyday work.
After the course you will receive a year of further support from your tutor, to help you through moments of
uncertainty. You will also take away a detailed course manual that will become a valuable desktop guide.
