Business Writing Certificate

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This certificate concentrates on teaching students to become productive, confident, and effective communicators in today's computerized business world.  The Business Writing Certificate would be ideal for anyone thinking of starting a small business or launching a career within an established company.  The program of study builds from a solid foundation in English writing skills and introduces students to the major styles of business writing.  The latter part of the program allows students to choose areas of interest such as Web development, business manuals, and sales material.  By the end of the program participants will have become more efficient producers of professional business documents using sound project management skills and insightful, resourceful communication strategies.

In order to complete the certificate, students must successfully complete 2 core compulsory courses, plus 6 elective courses.
