Improve Your Writing Skills

Some people learn to write really well in their school days; but for others, school is irrelevant, uninspiring, and it isn't until later in life that they see the relevance of writing well. If this is you, and you want to improve your writing skills for work or even just in your personal life -this course could be just what you need.

Learn how to write clearly and efficiently and to communicate thoughts without ambiguity.

What this Course Covers

There are six lessons:

  1. Introduction - Communication and language
  2. Basic Writing Skills - Speech parts and Grammar
  3. Clear Wording
  4. Concise Wording
  5. Punctuation and Accuracy
  6. Using Writing Skills - Letters, essays

Workload

Study when, where and however much you want. For most students, the course can be completed with a total of around 100 hours of study; and a commitment close to that may be needed to achieve desired learning outcomes.

Extra Reading

The following books, available through this web site are relevant supplementary reading for this course

  • English Grammar
  • Creative Writing
  • Working with People

Assessment

Self Assessment Tests are presented throughout the course. These are essentially an automated quiz. When you undertake a "SAT" or "Self Assessment Test", you will be able to see what you got correct, and what was incorrect; and in that way, you can identify your weaknesses.

Assignments are given at the end of each lesson. You should complete this assignment, paying careful attention to follow what is asked of you. It can be just as important to learn to work to specification, as it is to learn about the topic you are studying. Graduates who develop a habit of working to specification in the field of human behaviour, will impress employers, and will be more efficient when self employed.

A Final Exam is offered upon satisfactory completion of all assignments. This is optional. If you choose to apply for and do this exam, you will have the possibility of obtaining a "formal credit" or "Pass Certification" for this course. A fee applies. The exam may be sat under prearranged conditions anywhere in the world. This college will award you a formal transcript, upon successful completion of the exam, as proof of your results.

A strict "No Plagiarism" and "No fraud" policy exists. Assignments are checked for plagiarism, and assignments will not be deemed to have been completed, if work is not your own original creation, and is found to have been copied from elsewhere. If the person doing the course is discovered to be different to the name enrolled, the enrolment and any results will be recorded as invalid and any fees paid will be forfeited.
