Advanced web writing training philosophy

Our advanced web writing training follows one basic principle:

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime

Chinese proverb

Put simply, we don't want to provide well written content for your website - we want you to create well written content for your website. The advanced web writing training lasts for one full day, during which time you'll complete a series of exercises designed for you to discover the answers by yourself and then put into practice what you've learnt.

By the end of the day, you'll have acquired a deep understanding of how to write effective content for the web. As a result of our hands-on advanced web writing training, you'll have:

  • Improved confidence in writing content for your website
  • A deeper understanding of your new knowledge
  • Ownership of what you've learnt

Our advanced web writing training courses are relatively small (maximum 10 participants) due to their interactive nature and are informal and fun.

Our advanced web writing training centre

Advanced web writing courses are run at our purpose-built training centre at the Webcredible offices in London & some other locations across the UK. The advanced web writing training itself is run in a bright airy room with each person having access to a PC. You can also use our break-out area during breaks and lunch where refreshments are provided throughout the day.
