Peer Review
Help others produce excellent writing
Unlock the secret to constructive collaboration. Learn how to work together on behalf of your readers and protect your organisation’s reputation at the same time.
Have you ever wondered how to give feedback without hurting anyone’s feelings? Do you feel defeated when your own writing is covered in red? Learn how to review work and give feedback that works both ways.
Skills you’ll gain on the day
The peer review techniques you’ll learn will make it easier for you to:
- better understand the role of the peer reviewer
- have a staged approach for peer reviewing
- have checklists to help you with reviewing
- give useful feedback that boosts the writing and the writer.
Who this training is for
You may be a subject-matter expert, a manager, or a colleague.
You’ll also benefit from the workshop if you:
- are often asked to review people’s writing — you might be a commissioner, a team member, or a fresh pair of eyes on a document
- receive feedback on your own writing
- must write to a company standard.
