Shorthand is a great tool for recording copy when someone is speaking or giving you the copy verbally. It is also useful when company executives are delivering radio or TV interviews and you don’t have a recorder handy or for meetings and other important functions that require ‘instant memory’.

Shorthand can be taught in a matter of months with regular classes and thorough application and practice in between.

Let Write Away Whitsundays quote for you, depending on the number of people in the class, regularity of lessons and desired outcomes, for example, the number of words per minute required.

Write Away Whitsundays director Deborah Friend has 100 words per minute shorthand thanks to going through the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) scheme in the UK. She uses it all the time and, sadly, she even ‘thinks’ in shorthand when watching TV! Call 0488 760800 for a quote.
