Shorthand Speed Development

Course Objective:

A steady increase in speed, dexterity and confidence.

Course Content:

► Use of dictation material between 30 to 140 wpm*, with varied content e.g. Literary, parliamentary and company reports, commercial, general interest etc.

► Additional practice outside the time spent at the centre with access to our speed development web site.

► At an additional cost you have the opportunity to book one-to-one half-hour workshops with a tutor to review your progress and attempt a speed test.

► A speed certificate (at your optimum speed) will be issued at the end of your course.

Benefits:

► Improved core shorthand speed

► It is an accepted bench-mark that you need to invest 20 hours of practise for a speed gain of 20 words per minute – however this needs to be regular

► An ideal follow-on to Teeline, Pitman 2000 and Pitman Refresher or Beginner courses

► A choice of training locations and times, and the flexibility and value of self-study training methods that allow for different learning speeds and styles

► The opportunity to gain a widely recognised Pitman Speed Certificate

* final speed depends on aptitude, motivation and practise
