02 Apr 2025
Register by March 31, 2025

What do I need to focus on when writing a proposal or report? How can I write a compelling and winning proposal that clearly and concisely articulates the core benefits for a client? How do I write a technical report that is clear for multiple audience groups? This seminar is for engineers and geoscientists who wish to develop the confidence and writing skills necessary to write effective proposals and reports. Through this workshop, you will learn the key elements of writing and submitting winning proposals and reports, and how to tailor your content for both technical and non-technical audiences. You will also learn what your clients are looking for when they review your proposal or report.

Learning objectives 

  • learning about different types of proposals and reports, and what you need to do during the planning, drafting, and reviewing stages
  • understanding what clients are looking for when they are evaluating proposals and ensuring that your proposal stands out
  • learning to create clear reports for different audience groups, ranging from executives to the general public to technical groups
  • avoiding common mistakes in proposals and reports

This session will be held through Zoom.
