Technical Report Writing

Course Overview

Many professionals lack confidence in their report-writing skills, and feel that their credibility suffers because their written reports are not a fair reflection of their expertise. Anyone involved in technical work will quickly discover the challenges presented when trying to communicate their ideas, information, proposals or recommendations to colleagues and clients. All too often, the impact of many hours of work can hinge on the ability to explain the results effectively to others.

Executive summaries are increasingly important: they make an initial impact, particularly on senior decision makers or management, and may be used by readers who will never need the full report.

The course includes discussion of how to write an effective and engaging summary and the opportunity to put ideas into practice.

An informative and practical course that has strengthened my confidence in structuring and presenting technical reports. The trainers guidance was clear, relevant and highly applicable to local government work.
