GBThe 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.

GBA refreshing modern approach to technical writing, and writing in general. I liked the way the class taught how to improve on our current ability in English composition.

GBGood course especially for beginning writers! I think the classes provide a good foundation with thought-provoking ideas for individuals who want to know more about writing. Pam and MJ make it easy to understand and are very timely with critiques of the writing assignments.

GBGreat Practical Training Completed a one day training at the company I work at and really appreciated the practical information shared and application using documents provided from the company. The training included skills that can have immediate impact and the course material was presented in a balance manner that made the day seem to go by quickly. Pam Hurley was the trainer and she did an excellent job keepng everyone engaged. I work in research and development so it was great to learn that regardless of the type of document, the writing principles explained hold true.

GBWriting 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.
