Other competencies

Proper official communication is essential in professional life. How we communicate in writing at work reflects professionalism and attention to detail and leaves a lasting impression on the recipient. In addition, well-written official writing can speed up processes, gain positive reactions and build strong relationships with individuals, organisations or authorities. Mastery of the language (spelling, grammar and stylistics) of official documents is one of the essential competencies associated with the job.
