Get a certificate in professional writing
Major U.S. and International Corporations have expressed that an essential element of short-term and long-term professional success is exceptional skill in writing. A crisis in written communication has resulted in a growth of corporate writing consultants, hired to provide workshops, training sessions, and in-house consultations. In addition, some corporations and organizations are sending their employees to training conferences outside their companies.

Clearly, there is a demand for improved writing skills which is why BHSU currently offers a certificate in Professional Writing.
