  • Abstract
    An in-house writing course needs a knowledgeable and skilled manager for sponsorship and leadership, technical expertise from inside or outside the company, a well-written text, and a curriculum that addresses the common and recurring in-house communication problems. Having the employee students suggest topics and provide troublesome documents for diagnosis adds interest and generates commitment to the program.
