Minutes Writing Skills Workshop

Many individuals are assigned the responsibility of taking minutes during meetings, even if they are not the board secretary or a personal assistant. It is a task that is assigned to anyone attending the meeting, as accurate minutes are crucial for the success of any organization.

Taking minutes during a meeting can be a challenging process. One needs to actively listen for important points and distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information, as well as what is nice-to-know versus what is need-to-know. This can be particularly difficult when discussions are heated and contentious.

Once the meeting is over, compiling the notes requires careful consideration of the type of minutes that need to be written – narrative or action minutes. Each type has its own set of considerations and potential pitfalls to avoid. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the language used is clear, concise, and accurately conveys the discussed issues. This Minutes Writing Skills course is designed to provide participants with skills and knowledge necessary to create effective minutes. Whether you are a small, medium, large, private of public organization, this workshop is suitable for you
