“Fundamentals of Editing and
Proofreading” is designed for those paralegals who are good writers but who have
made unnecessary and embarrassing grammatical mistakes. The course will review
the common pitfalls of incorrect grammar, spelling and word usage in everyday
business settings that can spoil professional writing and that befall everyone
from time to time. The course will also examine the ways to help you recognize
and correct those small errors that can be so costly for you as well as your
bosses as well as how to “trim the excess fat” and get right to the point in
your writing, resulting in clear and concise products. Participants are
encouraged to ask questions about their specific trouble areas.
What past participants have said:
I liked that we were given printable materials to follow along with
and take notes. I also liked that Claire brought her own practical
on-the-job knowledge to this course.
