Business Writing Course

Business Writing Course

Success in business depends on more than confident conversation. Clear, precise writing is what builds credibility, strengthens relationships and drives action. Yet too often, messages are diluted by unclear structure, unnecessary jargon or avoidable errors.

Our Business Writing course is designed to sharpen your written communication so it works as hard as you do. You’ll explore the distinctions between formal and informal styles, learn when each is appropriate, and develop a practical toolkit you can apply across industries — from marketing and PR to journalism, leadership and corporate roles.

This is a hands-on course built around active practice. Expect to write, review and refine your work in every session. Bring a notebook and be ready to engage.

Please note that fluency in English is essential for this course.

Course content

Throughout the course, our expert tutors will help you build on your existing skills in a supportive group setting.

All City Academy tutors are experienced professionals from theatre, film/TV and performance industries. So whilst they're training you they may also be rehearsing for a West End show or working on a movie. We like that and we do believe it makes a difference in class.
