Our Business Research Report Writing Skills course is designed for business researchers. It teaches them how to prepare reports by summarizing the results of their research for use by internal clients in accomplishing business goals.

The course focuses on teaching the researcher how to decide what information is pertinent and how to summarize or synthesize the information into a coherent presentation without interjecting bias. It contains assignments, practice activities, and written competency exams to help ensure learning.

Similar to how college classes work, you do your assigned work on your own, then submit it to your instructor, who grades, comments upon, and returns the assignment to you. The instructor will coach you in this way until you master the skills. FYI, your instructor is also available via email or phone.
