Eight-Step Editing Workshop
DATE :
Eight-Step Editing with Elizabeth d'Anjou:
The Calgary and Edmonton twigs of Editors Canada are pleased to offer the Eight-Step Editing workshop, to be presented in person by Elizabeth d'Anjou.
Eight-Step Editing is a lively, interactive workshop that teaches proven, practical strategies for improving a piece of writing. Attendees will acquire a “toolkit” of techniques—along with a systematic approach for using them—for making a text more readable.
The workshop combines theory with practice. Participants gain an understanding of the principles underlying each of the eight steps, then apply those principles in exercises. There is ample opportunity to ask questions of the expert instructor in a supportive atmosphere.
Since the 1980s, Eight-Step Editing has been in demand as a unique training opportunity for communications professionals in government, corporate, and non-profit settings, as well as for academics and for freelance editors and writers.
