The whole purpose of a report is to convey information to the reader in a clear understandable format, in order that the reader may make an informed decision upon. How many times have you read a report and been more confused after reading it than before? How many times have you become lost in the detail, which has overshadowed the main theme and arguments? This course is designed to provide the report writer with the professional skills to make their reports a compelling read that is easy to understand.

Overview

Who is this for?

Managers at any level in catering and hospitality departments, especially those seeking to improve their report writing skills and those seeking promotion within their organisations.

It also provides them with the critical skills to evaluate their subject and present conclusions objectively.

FAQs

  • I can’t see a particular course/training, can you run it?

    If you are interested in receiving training that is not already offered by TUCO Academy, pop us an email or give us a call and we will see if we can source it for you. By going through TUCO Academy you will be able to purchase the training at a subsidised rate and if you can offer the training to other members it will reduce the cost further.

  • Can I request a course or development day be held at my organisation?

    The TUCO Academy has worked hard to offer all training at a subsidised price, agreeing reduced corporate contract rates with hotels etc. - yet still understands the benefits of in-house training. To that end, working alongside the professional trainers, TUCO Academy can arrange for events to be held at your own institution, for no extra cost.
