Writing for the web training philosophy Our writing for the web training follows one basic principle:
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime
Chinese proverb
Put simply, we don't want to provide well written content for your website - we want you to create well written content for your website. The writing for the web training lasts for one full day, during which time you'll complete a series of exercises designed for you to discover the answers by yourself and then put into practice what you've learnt.
By the end of the day, you'll have acquired a deep understanding of how to write effective content for the web. As a result of our hands-on writing for the web training, you'll have:
  • Improved confidence in writing content for your website
  • A deeper understanding of your new knowledge
  • Ownership of what you've learnt
The cost per participant is £395 + VAT, including refreshments, a delicious lunch and all-you-can-eat ice cream. Vegetarian lunch is also available.
Participants also receive a free handbook containing all the course tutorials.
Demand for our courses is high so do be sure to book early to avoid disappointment. All courses take place from 10.00am to 5.00pm at our training centre in Aldgate, London.
We also offer private in-house writing for the web training, which can be especially useful if there are 3 or more of you looking to attend.
