How it works

Business Writing Boost is highly interactive with:

  • a self-paced format so you can study at a time that suits you best
  • comprehensive reference material that includes detailed theory and explanations
  • hands-on activities to master the content
  • short quizzes to check your learning and reinforce understanding
  • weekly check-ins with our expert trainer so you can ask questions and meet other participants.

 When it runs

The course runs from Monday 4 November to Friday 29 November. Weekly check-ins are every Friday at 12 pm. 

We’ll start with a kick-off session: 

  • Date: Friday 1 November
  • Time: 12–12.30 pm (AEDT)

If you can’t make the kick-off session or the weekly check-ins, don’t worry – we’ll record them so you can view them later.

‘I'd like to do a refresher course after a few months and see if I have applied the tools effectively and where there is room for improvement.’

‘I think a refresher training session every couple of years would be very beneficial.’

‘This is an area where you can slip back into old habits easily. Refresher training would be useful.’
