Policy and procedure writing
Unclear policy and procedure documents can easily be misunderstood or misconstrued. When this happens, it can lead to serious consequences for the users of the documents or the people affected by them.
Overview
Unclear policy and procedure documents can easily be misunderstood or misconstrued. When this happens, it can lead to inconsistencies, inefficiencies – even legal action or other serious consequences for the users of the documents, or the people affected by them.
But with clear, active, and specific writing, every employee or stakeholder will know where they stand and how they should act in any professional situation.
On this practical and interactive course, we’ll show you how to write accessible policies and procedures that mean the expertise within your organisation can be put into action.
Outcomes
On this course, you’ll learn how to:
- set clear objectives and profile your readers
- identify and communicate key messages effectively
- ensure you include the right information and level of detail
- create a logical structure for policies and procedures
- strip out needless waffle and use jargon appropriately
- write in clear, active language for documents that people will read and understand
- use specific language to avoid ambiguity and misunderstandings
- write subheadings that guide and engage the reader
- create consistent documents with clear formatting and design
- make documents accessible
- be accurate with grammar and punctuation and proofread documents for errors.
