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.

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.

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.

GBCustomized one-on-one writing tutoring I've chosen to do business with HurleyWrite twice in recent years (once for an employee, this time for me). The Technical Writing online course was high quality both times. Pam adjusted the emphasis in her feedback for skill development, depending on the ability and needs of the person taking the course. The aspects I particularly appreciated were the ability to use 'real' writing projects (not busy-work assignments), the quick turnaround on documents for review (and the quality of the commentary provided), and the concise written take-away items. I finished the course with practical tips that I will actually remember and use -- and a writing project that shows progress made.

GBWriting class The class was very informative and well organized; the only one detail that I would work on is the materials that were distributed in class. While the packaging is professionally done, the content needs to have more examples and something that the student can take home and “hang their hat on”. The instructor is very knowledgeable and has a wealth of information that she lectures therefore, if that information can be captured in the hand out that would make the class a 5-plus star.
