Business report writing
Reports are far more than simply tasks to tick off a to-do list – they’re a vital component in keeping organisations running effectively.
Overview
Writing high-quality reports that clearly express expertise or recommendations is a core business skill. This comprehensive report-writing training covers all the skills your team need to plan, structure and write effective reports that get results.
For in-house courses, we’ll tailor the course content and practical exercises to your unique challenges and goals. This includes using real-life examples of your documents so everything is relevant for your sector, industry and the kinds of reports your team write.
Outcomes
On this course, you’ll learn how to:
- build a logical structure – helping communicate ideas clearly and succinctly

- use an appropriate level of language for your readers
- make effective use of data and graphics
