Description

Communicate clearly by email and in writing!

Your email and business correspondence reflects as much about you as it does the subject matter. There is a systematic approach to business writing which does not come naturally even to normally good communicators.  During this session participants with no formal training in email  and business writing will learn and practice the fundamental techniques of email etiquette and business communication.
