I really enjoyed how interactive and engaging the topics and the facilitator were. (The facilitator) created an excellent space where the group could express themselves if they wished to.

Government Writing for Impact
People are much more impactful in their role when they are communicating clearly and concisely through good government writing.
Public sector officers and subject matter experts, who already have experience writing for government, often find it difficult to communicate the complex ideas and policies they work with in their role.
This program focuses on writing clearly and concisely using plain English to ensure that communication of complex ideas is efficient and effective.
