The e-learning has 21 interactive lessons. Each lesson has different elements: brief instructions about plain language, writing exercises and feedback and suggestions on your exercise results. In addition to instructions, exercises, feedback and suggestions, the course contains 30 instruction videos.
Efficient
The advantage of e-learning is that participants choose for themselves where and when they do the lessons. They can do the lessons during quiet hours at work. In the evenings at home. Or on the weekend. This is not only convenient for the participants, it also benefits the organisation they work for: the loss of productive hours is minimal.
Effective
The e-learning is also highly effective. Compared with offline classroom training participants, e-learning course participants perform just as well.
What do clients say?
Kathrin Abelein, head of the Quality department of Merck in The Netherlands:
Dear team,
I completed your course “writing in plain English - professional” and would like to provide my feedback.
My first language is German, I love language and I usually use convoluted, colorful full, descriptive and detailed sentences ;-)
I am the head of the Quality department, my language at work is English, currently I am also learning the local language (Dutch).
Your course helped me tremendously to be much more effective in my work.
With the background you provided at the beginning of the course I understood two things:
- The importance and the advantages of using plain English
- How difficult I made it for my team
This was an eye opener and incredibly useful,
Thanks so much,
Best regards
Kathrin
