Clerical and Administrative support staff
Content:
Note taking is an important skill for Administrative support staff to improve as part of their overall ‘communication toolkit’. From simple jottings to short hand and digital notes, there are lots of resources and methods to choose from. Meetings require anything from a formal precise record, key points or a table of actions. Regardless of the mechanism, the notes taken are relied upon as a record of communication, commitments and understanding and can help to produce effective and consistent minutes when required.
Duration: half day
Overview |
This workshop reviews the needs and circumstances of notetaking. It is linked to minute writing with a focus on the art of taking notes. It can also apply to attending a lecture, meeting, learning event or taking an important and detailed phone call; but the focus here is the taking notes in a meeting. Effective Minute Writing is a related but separate workshop. |
