Correctness

You've spent time and energy crafting a piece of writing. And then some rogue typo or

grammatical error undermines all your hard work – making it look slapdash.

In our Correctness course: 

We cover three types of punctuation that people can often get wrong: 

  • colons

  • semi-colons 

  • apostrophes.

We look at:

  • common pairs (and trios) of words that cause confusion, like ‘effect’ and ‘affect’

  • using the right pronouns in the right places – when it’s ‘I’ and when it’s ‘me’.

When your writing’s right, you:

  • show care and credibility: attention to detail signals quality

  • keep readers focused: error-free writing lets your message take centre stage

  • make reading effortless: clean copy means nothing to stumble over, just smooth understanding.

Hi everyone,

Were launching a new project next week. The goal is to make our internal communications smoother. The affect should be a big reduction in our response times. John and myself will run a workshop to outline the new process. We’ll keep you posted.
