COMMENTS FROM ATTENDEES:

"I recommend Writing 3 to all those who write well but want to write better. The course struck a fine balance between the principles of good writing and concrete tips on how to write clear and energetic prose. Using group writing and presentation exercises, our trainer provided constructive feedback on each person's writing style. It was a thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding day."
Andrea Brady, Principal, Porter Novelli Public Relations

"I learnt so much about different writing techniques in such a short time in the Write Like Obama course. What was particularly valuable was putting what we had learnt into practice by analysing his speeches, identifying the many ways in which he makes his writing so powerful."
Allyson Riley, EBC Content and Speaker Manager, Microsoft Australia
