Technical English writing reports

   Code : ES217                                     Unit : 1                                 Prerequisite : ES125

With this Technical Report Writing training course, you will gain the essential skills of producing technical reports of which you can be proud. Technical reports often present complex information to non-specialists. Their effectiveness depends as much on the quality of the writer’s ideas as on the accuracy of their information. An effective technical report displays complicated information in ways that make it easy to understand, and – above all – relevant to the reader. You will learn how to construct coherent arguments and explanations, and how to present information to support them. We shall look at how to offer complex material to support managerial and strategic decision-making. We shall work on how to make language work for us, and how to make reports look as good as they read. Throughout the course, we shall work directly with participants’ own reports. Working in English as a second or further language will be a reference theme throughout..
