Writing is everywhere.

The course will help you to translate your love of writing into a career, equipping you with the skills needed to develop your own creative work and a distinctive voice, whilst simultaneously preparing you for the huge range of employment opportunities for which enhanced communication skills are essential.This course is built on authentic learning and ensures you’ll continually engage with visiting professionals from a range of creative industries.
