eLearning
eLearning is a great solution when you have a large number of people to train and/ or when the topic is knowledge based. Good eLearning must be interactive, engaging and, most importantly content (rather than technology) focussed.
We have successfully developed eLearning modules in a range of apps, including Articulate and Adobe Captivate, as stand alone learning and as part of a blended solution. If you have a different in-house system we are happy to discuss our capability with you.
Web Copy Writing
Writing good web copy is an art form. It has to be succinct, compelling and interesting. Consequently it also one of the hardest forms of writing to produce.
Kate Smyth Consulting has extensive experience in writing great web copy and a typical website takes us about five hours. Save the anguish of trying to do it yourself – give us a call today.
Report Writing and Editing
Are you too close to your subject? Do you need an independent voice? Do you lack time or capacity to write a business report?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions then give us a call today to discuss how we can deliver a report with a reader orientation, a persuasive flow and a clear and logical structure.
Technical Writing
Good technical writing is like ballet – it looks graceful and effortless but there are years of experience behind it.
From major, company wide IT project through to a minor upgrade we are your partners in success in getting your staff up to speed quickly and seamlessly. Aligned to your business processes our technical documentation is streamlines, logical and visual.
We can produce technical artefacts in a wide range of formats including elearning and blended solutions.
