Summary of Program: This course is for support, clerical, and technical staff. One of the most remarkable changes in the workplace today affects the non-executive staff occupations. Flattening the organization, team-building, and downsizing have impacted the non-executive staff so much that in many cases these positions may be replaced by computers. The elimination of this part of the workforce has serious ramifications for everyone in that occupational code but also for the workplace culture itself. In other words, everyone will need to have confidence in the mechanics of language and well-generated writing skills which address multiple perspectives. Besides training in these areas, Writing for Advancement trains participants to think more clearly.
