workshops
2Write offers writing and design workshops for individuals and groups. We enjoy sharing our skills with NGOs, small businesses and community organisations.
We can show you how to
- write well: say what you mean in clear, simple language
- write letters, reports and formal documents: be professional, get rid of jargon and fluff
- write newsletters and magazines: promote your organisation, inform your members and lift morale
- write media releases and manage the media: face your fears and get your message across
- write creatively, both fiction and non-fiction
- adjust your writing for the web, including Facebook, blogs and organisational websites.
Our courses are tailor-made to suit your organisation, subject matter, style and audience. We provide written course material and ongoing support.
Please get in touch with us to discuss your training needs.
