New webCampus course for September

Toronto – August 23, 2016 – UFCW Canada’s groundbreaking online education program, webCampus, is launching a new course for the month of September.

Dubbed “Workplace Writing Skills,” the free online course is being offered in English from September 6th to 30th, and is available to all UFCW Canada members and their families, as well as our community partners.

The new course is described as follows:

Workplace Writing Skills – English Only

According to study.com’s Why Writing Skills are More Important than Ever, there are many reasons why it is important to have good writing skills in today’s economy. When you speak directly to someone, you get immediate feedback. Depending on the feedback – verbal and non-verbal – you can adjust your message accordingly. 

Written communication poses a greater challenge. When writing any sort of content, you have to think about the message that you want to convey, and how you are going to clearly communicate that message. But you also have to think about your readers and their needs.

If you don’t have good writing skills, you will have a hard time communicating with your readers. This course will help you improve your writing skills, both in the workplace and in your personal life.

Registration for the webCampus “Workplace Writing Skills” course opens August 25th. To register for this free online course, and to find out more about the webCampus program, visit the webCampus website.
