Welcome to our Bradley University English 306 web site!

This site was designed to help college students and recent graduates just entering the workforce.  Our purpose is to show you some of the written forms of business communication in hopes of providing you with an informational resource.

With the proliferation of computers, there has been a deficiency in the quality of written skills.  In fact, Thill and Bovee point out that among major employers, "41 percent provide writing-skills programs for their employees."  Clearly, the importance of written communication cannot be overlooked.  Please use this site as a guide to make sure your written skills are up to par!!!

In this site you will find suggestions and information on writing business letters, memos, employment messages and reports used in the business world.  Also, don't forget to vote in our on-line poll.
