From honing writing skills to a full business-writing service
Emphasis is the UK’s leading organisation dedicated solely to business-writing training and consultancy. We train our clients to write clearly and effectively.
We offer a wide range of business-writing courses to suit a variety of needs, providing specialist training and consultancy to a huge range of private and public-sector organisations.
Business-writing training is what we know and what we do: we train in no other area. Because we are specialists, we can create bespoke courses to improve your business-writing skills in the areas where you most need help.
Our trainers are all experts in professional business-writing skills and know that not everyone finds it easy to make a point succinctly. We'll help you get your message across and make sure your documents get to the top of the pile. We’ll even show you how to enjoy it.
We also offer a full business-writing consultancy service. We can audit, edit or write your documents. And we can tailor our style guide for you, to ensure your documents are consistent and accurate.

Courses for individuals
Not sure what you need? Want to go it alone? Open writing-skills courses are a great way to train only one or two people, or to sample our training before bringing it in-house. We run courses every month in central London.

High-impact business writing
People today are busier than ever, and grabbing their attention is almost as difficult as persuading them to part with their money. Skilful writing in business can give you a real advantage when you need to get people to sit up and take notice.
In this intensive, practical course, an expert trainer will show you how to produce effective business writing quickly, and get your documents to the top of the pile. We analyse your writing before the course and tailor the exercises to you. You can apply what we teach to all areas of business: proposal writing, reports, letters and emails.
