Write right for positive results

Filipinos are no stranger to the English language. In 2016, Philippines ranked 13th on the list of the best non-native English speakers in the world. However, based on the British Councils’ International English Language Testing System (IELTS), there is still a massive need to work on the way Filipinos express themselves on paper.

To enhance one’s writing skills, the Center for Global Best Practices will host a oneday training entitled, Write Right for Positive Results: Best Practices Guide to One-Page Business Letters, Memos and Reports to be held on Friday, April 26, at the Manila Marriott Hotel, Pasay City.
