Writing for Your Readers

Class starts March 5, 2012

This breakout course teaches you how to analyze your readers more effectively and use proven writing strategies that will help you meet the needs of different audiences and get the results you want.

With specific questions and techniques to use when writing for different audiences, you'll feel more confident about the technical documents you write. In addition, you'll learn how to write for mixed audiences in such a way that reaches your less knowledgeable readers while still engaging those with more expertise.

Writing for Your Readers is taken from our popular Great Technical Documents that teaches you how to write more effective technical documents. This course is intended for students who feel that they generally have good writing skills, but need some help when it comes to writing for different audiences.

The target audience for Writing for Your Readers is anyone who has to write professional and technical documents. It should be especially useful for engineers, software developers/consultants, medical writers, and technical writers.

Writing for Your Readers is taught by Janet Underwood, an award-winning technical writer and instructor of the popular Fundamentals of Technical Writing course. Her students applaud her knowledge of technical writing and her personalized approach to her subject matter.
 
You may have great ideas, but if you cannot communicate them effectively to different people, you may never receive the recognition you deserve. Start Writing for Your Readers and achieve the results you want!

Breakout courses consist of one lesson, which will be released on the first day of a new session. Breakout lessons have a quiz, recommended links, a printable copy of the lesson, and an assignment. We also have a forum where you can interact with other students or your instructor.

For breakout courses, you may take the quiz only one time. You must pass the lesson quiz to receive your Certificate of Completion. If you do not achieve a passing score, we will send you a Certificate of Attendance to recognize your efforts. We will ask you for the address to which you'd like us to send your certificate.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
