Clarity's Business Writing is aimed at all Intermediate – Advanced level learners who need to write business letters, emails and reports. It is suitable both for students and for those who are already working in a business environment.

This program is designed not just to equip you, the learner, with the skills to write specific text types but will also help you to acquire the underlying skills of writing. These include awareness of grammar issues – active and passive, contractions, modals – the ability to write clearly and appropriately, and a knowledge of how to make your writing more readable.
