Who we are?

A successful learning company is only as good as its people. So we make sure our educators and business-writing consultants have a strong background in professional writing and communications – just as many of our office staff do. We’re English-language teachers, journalists, publishers, writers, and editors. Our backgrounds give us the depth of information to tackle even the most complex writing and communications challenges. Although our trainers are all business-writing specialists in their own right, they still have to complete a detailed trainer-training program themselves before they can work with our clients. So when you work with us, you can be certain it will be with someone who knows their subject and who can transfer their information sensitively and effectively. Emphasis is already the UK’s number-one supplier of business-writing training. And we’re on our way to becoming one of the world’s leading communications learning experts. We’ve built our reputation on supplying high-quality, high-impact business-writing courses for companies and individuals, both through live courses and online. In response to demand from our clients, we now offer a larger portfolio of communications learning and consultancy services, such as our matchless presentation abilities training. Since we started out in 1998, we’ve helped more than 60,000 people from over 6,000 blue-chip companies, government departments, consultancies, law firms, universities, charities, accountancy firms, pharmaceutical companies, and construction firms – in fact, anywhere where effective communication plays a key role.

What do we do?

We combine our love of communications and the English language with a passion for the science of learning. This helps us to deliver training and advisory that makes a real, measurable effect. We supply an extensive range of communications and business-writing training, including presentation abilities, effective email writing, bid writing, and writing for the web. Looking for something out of the ordinary? Do you have a challenge that is special to your industry or organization? If so, we can tailor the learning to match any specific training need in communications or writing. We also offer advice and support on communications to both your internal and external audiences, designed to help save you time and money.

Our training methods involve:

• face-to-face tailored courses for companies
• face-to-face open courses for individuals
• online learning
• remote learning, using the latest web technology
• mixed learning, combining the methods above.

All our programs are highly interactive and engaging. Participants often tell us in feedback that they were surprised how enjoyable they found the course – and how rapidly the time went.
