Training people

We deliver change through Getting to the point^® plain English writing training for businesses and government.

Our in-house workshops build skills in writing reports, policies, ministerials, letters and emails, web content and more. We tailor this training to your sector.

We hold our 1-day public workshop for individuals or small groups at CBD venues around Australia.

• template development like briefing notes, letters and procedures
• writing evaluations of individual documents, sets of reports or whole websites.
