You are at your computer drafting an email, a report, a cover letter, or something else work-related. As you write, you're second-guessing this work...that sentence...this paragraph: Is it clear? Is it persuasive? Is it correct? You wonder:

How can I make it better?

Learning Outcomes:

Upon completion, participants will demonstrate:

• A deeper understanding of audience analysis as a first step in the writing process. 
• Greater attention to appropriate tone, particularly with regard to level of formality. 
• Improved clarity through specific writing techniques. 
• Increased confidence in their writing skills and increased speed in the writing process. 

Please bring a 1-2 page sample of your own professional writing to share with the class. If you are unable to bring a sample from your employment, you are welcome to bring some other type of professional writing that you would like to review.
