Business Writing for Regulatory Professionals: Making It Easy

To be effective, regulatory professionals need to write documents in a clear and well-organized manner. Under short deadlines, you have to create documents that are correct, complete, and concise.

After completing the virtual class, you will be able to: 

• Create documents that will answer the readers’ questions before they ask them
• Organize most documents in less than 60 seconds
• Recognize when to use the active and when to use the passive voice
• Format documents so they can be read easily on cell phones
• Use online tools to analyze the readability of documents and format documents for eliminating extra spacing
• Use a proofreading tool that will read documents aloud
