ASFE to Host Webinar on Proofreading
May 22, 2013
John P. Bachner, Executive Vice President, ASFE/The Geoprofessional Business Association will lead a webinar titled “POOFREADING 101” on Wednesday, June 5, 2013, at 12:00 PM Eastern time.
“If this is the best webinar you’ve ever seen, we’ll give you your money back!” It’s amazing how often people accidently omit the word “not,” and so commit to a sentence that means the opposite of what you intended to say. STOP IT! Learn how to REALLY proofread. It’s not reading it slowly and carefully. It’s so much more. And knowing so much more helps you:
- avoid embarrassment,
- avoid claims,
- submit better, more-professional proposals, and
- project a more professional, quality-focused image.
This webinar — a live reprise of one of the most popular John Bachner offerings — has helped people improve their proofreading ability by 40% and more, which isn’t surprising, given that most folks for whom proofreading is essential have never learned how. Get on bored!
This webinar qualifies for 1 Professional Development Hour (PDH). You will receive your PDH certificate via e-mail within 72 hours of the webinar completion.
More information and a link for registration for the webinar are found at this ASFE webpage
