The field of technical writing covers a variety of areas of major value to any organisation. Some of these areas are:
• The writing of technical reports using easy-to-follow formats and presentation.
• The writing of proposals – from relatively easy to major proposals; formats remain the same, it is content that changes.
• The writing of procedures that are focussed on the user and their understanding of the work to be done.
• Creating presentations that work - correct use of colours, fonts, font sizes, graphics and displays etc.

documents as well as certain business documents, e.g. reports, proposals, procedures, letters,
memo’s, e-mail, minutes of meetings etc., presentations
