Hurley Write provides valuable writing instruction. I have become a more effective writer with the instruction offered through the online modules, and the related writing exercises following each section. Pam Hurley provides constructive feedback, and emphasizes specifics of the lesson. I would gladly recommend Hurley Write to anyone seeking writing instruction, and would like to take another class myself.

Writing Scientific Papers and Delivering Presentations Course The class was excellent, with many opportunities for feedback and practice. For anyone who has to write or present, the tools, techniques, and concepts covered are invaluable. The organization I work for seems to assume that scientists and engineers learned everything they need to know about writing technical papers and delivering presentations in college, and doesn't see a need to provide ongoing mentoring and training, other than informally. Hopefully that can be changed.

Well planned course Pam is professional and knowledgeable, if a little cynical at times. The course topics were explained well and useful to me. Writing exercises were a great way to reinforce the topics and I enjoyed them, although I wish there were more that included our own writing. I would like more time spent on technical formats, as it was left as the last two hours of the twelve hour course. It seems like the course material was geared more toward pharma companies whose documents require more persuasion, as opposed to formatted procedures and templates. As a writer stuck with designated document formats, I can't really use what I learned but I can definitely put it toward future writing.

The course was well laid out and presented the material in step x step lessons. I would suggest two follow-on courses. 1. Advance writing 2. Oral presentations After taking the first course, it would be nice to have the ability to submit writing examples via computer based training - possibly over several weeks.

Informative Scientific Writing Course Good ideas on a variety of ways to improve scientific writing that can be implemented immediately. Easy and energetic style of teaching with humor thrown in to keep the attendees paying attention. Recommend as a first time or refresher course.
