If you work as a writer in any capacity, you use business or technical writing skills in your job, or you simply want to improve your writing skills then you should request the Free Facts Pack provided for this Writing & Editing Course.

This course has been developed to meet requests for a business/technically focussed course that does not include the fiction or creative side of writing (if this is what you want see our Advanced Professional Writing & Editing Course).

This is a detailed writing course that is incredibly comprehensive. You will learn about kinds of writing; writing styles; how to draft out non-fiction pieces, edit and fine-tuning your work; how to lay out technical documents and writing content for web pages.

This is an ideal course if you have already undertaken a general writing course; however, you can certainly undertake this course even if you have no previous experience. You will need an aptitude for writing and reading, though.

Keep in mind, this is a writing course for people who really want to develop their writing skills either for personal, academic or business purposes.
