If the skills you’d acquired by the time you wrote your last book report for school aren’t cutting it for you in the business world, this course can teach you what you need to know. Almost every professional has to write a short report at some point in his or her career, and despite the fact that it doesn’t have to be “long,” it can still be daunting – especially if you don’t like writing. This interactive online course will teach you to use the simple and extremely effective Pyramid method of writing to create the most common types of reports professionals will be faced with in their careers.
