Description
The workshop will focus on the principles of formal writing in English from formulating project proposals to drafting final reports. Participants will be introduced to the steps to produce official texts which are both easy to read and comprehensive.
The workshop will cover aspects of structuring texts and ordering information as well as the correct use of grammar and style. Apart from trainer input, the practical workshop will comprise group discussions, and small group and individual exercises.
Target Group
Public service employees who have to deal with formal English writing in their daily job (writing proposals, memos, etc.).
Participants are requested to hand in examples of documents which they have produced, e.g. proposals, memos, reports, etc., prior to the workshop. Extracts of these texts may serve as a basis for some practical exercises.
Objectives
• To explore and discuss features of effective formal letters and project documentation;
• To experience techniques for cooperative and stepby- step writing;
• To learn to avoid common grammar and style mistakes in formal written English;
• To put new insights into practice.
