Our stage 1 and stage 2 courses
PLEASE NOTE: THESE COURSES ARE STILL IN THE DEVELOPMENT PHASE. LEAD TIMES MAY VARY.
Our editor, Rachel Beckett, has a BTEC Level 3 qualification in workplace coaching, as well as a PGCE teaching qualification. Her professional editing service includes online or in-person training and coaching for business professionals on editorial techniques.
At stage 1, this means the nuts and bolts of editing – grammar, syntax and punctuation.
Stage 2 looks more carefully at structuring a document, setting the right tone and other more advanced factors required for a successful well written professional document or report.
Note that the levels are not accredited by an external agency. However they will take delegates through key points to consider in improving their written communication skills, and each delegate who completes the course will receive a Pure Bold e-certificate as a PDF attachment.
Endorsements of editorial coaching
The training you provided me with has been very useful. You are the first person who has made me understand the correct use of apostrophes so thank you!
Personal Assistant to Director
‘Thank you ever so much… it [learning resources and exercises] is exactly what I need and is very useful, particularly the presentation. I will most definitely print a hard copy and keep this to hand for when I am ever in doubt…’
Personal Assistant to Director
‘Your Writing Room [suite of editorial resources] is brilliant. I needed to set my defaults in Outlook… it told me what to do…. it was nice to be able to do it myself… fantastic, thank you.’
Office Manager
‘The glossary [of technical terms] is really great! Really appreciate the plain English style – it covers lots of concepts that I’ve been struggling with.’
