Plain English training

ARDS’ professional linguists and language workers deliver regular online training in Plain English - a crucial skill for effective cross-cultural communication.

Introduction to Plain English and Practicing Plain English are 1.5 hour courses. The first module provides a comprehensive and practical overview of tools for speaking and writing in Plain English. The second module supports participants to apply these tools with structured writing and speaking activities.

The two modules are part of our Online Workshops schedule but are also available for standalone purchase.

Because this training is included in our online workshop series, dates are fixed. The scheduled Plain English training dates for 2024 are as follows:

Term 1: May 16 & May 23

Term 2: August 15 & 23

Term 3: October 18 & 25
