Description
This course is intended for CPAs who are required to explain technical concepts through written forms of communication.
During the course, we will create a checklist for drafting professional emails and documents.
The overarching goal of this course is to help you visualize your own communications from the perspective of your readers. Whether your readers are your clients or your co-workers, they will rarely possess the same knowledge as you. While a client may be unfamiliar with certain accounting concepts, a co-worker may be unfamiliar with the file you are working on. In order to write effectively, writers must bridge the knowledge gap between them and their readers.
By attending this session, you will master techniques for writing to your various readers, both “internal” and “external”.
TOPICS AND TAKEAWAYS:
• Section 1: Clarity – writing unambiguously
• Section 2: Conciseness and Attention to Detail – using fewer words and demonstrating your diligence
• Section 3: Email Etiquette – best practices for communicating by email
• Section 4: Readability – drafting communications that are easy to review

"When I watched Ryan’s business-writing webinar, it immediately became clear that he is an energizing speaker who can hold your attention. I found it refreshing to see a young professional so concerned with grammar, spelling and concise business writing. These skills are still necessities in today’s business world. Since viewing Ryan’s webinar, our team has hired him numerous times to speak at BDO."
