| Aims and Objectives |
|
The workshops are designed to assist students with their course, as Shorthand can sometimes be a challenge to learn.
The aim is to bring together Shorthand students of different levels, or who are doing different shorthand systems, in an informal environment to have some individual time with a qualified Shorthand Tutor to discuss any needs/any problem areas. There is also an opportunity for group discussion and additional exercises, as well as tips and advice on achieving learning goals. It is a great opportunity to meet fellow Shorthand students. |

| Target Audience |
|
Students who are currently completing either a Teeline or Pitman 2000 Shorthand Course including refresher courses.
There are four 2 hour workshops for the Pitman 2000 & Teeline Shorthand Courses and two 2 hour workshops for Refresher Shorthand Courses. |
