Professional writing for corporate communication, journalism and marketing professionals

Creating good, meaningful, comprehensible and meaningful texts in the field of corporate communication, social media marketing or journalism is hard work and involves a lot of effort. Copywriting requires sound basic knowledge of writing and text comprehensibility. After all, the written text should "grab" the reader and at the same time bring them a certain benefit! However, this is often difficult to achieve. Ease of reading, precise expression, logical text structure and content, linguistic appeal - these are all challenges for copywriters in all sectors and areas.

For professionals in the fields of corporate communication, marketing, social media and journalism, who often have to write texts in their daily work, but also for graduates who are looking to start a career in these fields, the workshop in Professional Writing offers a unique opportunity to professionalize their knowledge and craft. During the course, participants soon realize how the impact and versatility of their writing style improves significantly and how writing and editing becomes much easier.

The course in Professional Writing is part of the CAS Corporate Writer (FH) and is completed in eight half-day courses. Further information on the course can be found on the comprehensive and informative education portal Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch.

Focus 1 provides generalist training for writing in professional, academic and media contexts. Focus 2 can be completed on virtual platforms in social distance learning, but is otherwise identical in content to Focus 1. Focus 3 takes place in compact form over four consecutive days and Focus 4 is geared towards the requirements of administrations, associations, schools, authorities, foundations and politics.

In addition to the four different course variants, participants in the Professional Writing course also have the opportunity to choose one or more specializations, which are charged separately. These specialization courses are optional, but mandatory for the completion of a diploma. The following are available in 2018:

  • Writing for content marketing and storytelling
  • Writing for the web, including SEO strategies
  • Writing for social media
  • Writing in interaction with education and design

The continuing education, further training in Professional Writing also consists of eight thematic blocks, which are covered in face-to-face lessons or in social distance learning via video lessons. After an introduction to written communication, participants are taught the rules of spelling, sentence structure, punctuation marks and standing phrases, followed by a focus on reader-friendliness. In addition, technical terms and names are explained, the moderate and correct use of foreign words as well as clear words and word order, a concrete way of expression and elegant sentence constructions are learned. Logic and precision are also focal points of continuing education, further training, which includes word choice, sentence endings, expressions and meaningful terms. A written diploma examination can also be taken, although this requires at least one in-depth course.

The costs for the entire writing course, including workshops and in-depth course, diploma examination and teaching materials, amount to around CHF 3,000. For more information on the costs of the Professional Writing Workshop, please contact the schools directly using the contact form.
