Necessary Skills. Effective writing skills are required to successfully convey information through business communications such as policies, procedures, letters, memos, proposals, presentations and email. However, many individuals lack the proficiency needed for clear, succinct composition.
The Structured Writing Program (SWP) can provide you with specific techniques and reader-oriented writing practices that help you to reach your audience with the intended message.
A Standard Approach. The SWP offers a proven, tested, and user-friendly writing format that serves as the primary tool to convey your message in a logical and easy-to-read layout. The SWP writing format provides consistency of writing across an organization. Without a standard writing format, readers can get frustrated with different formats, different writing styles, and even inconsistent content if authors are permitted to lay out their content any way they want.
Program Design. The SWP consists of lecture, small group activities, writing assignments and individual and group evaluations of written assignments.
