Program Overview
The Piper Center for Vocation & Career is partnering with AIGA: The Professional Association for Design to offer the Writing and Editing Certificate program.
The ability to write clearly and directly is highly prized in most organizations. From well-written emails to documents used to inform or persuade your audience, effective writing is an essential skill in the designer’s toolkit. This certificate will cover techniques for both business writing and technical writing. You’ll also be given tips for how to address common challenges, from idea to execution. The certificate will also provide foundational skills in copyediting, as well as more detailed information related to parts of speech and sentence construction to ensure you have a range of skills to make your writing stand out.
Note: Given the cost associated with the program, selected students must commit to completing the (estimated 28 hours total) of online training.
Application Deadline: October 15, 2024 at 11:59pm
