Course description
This Minute Taking course will enhance your ability to effectively take records of meetings and capture crucial points as required.
Meetings are important in many businesses, but often their effectiveness is lost in translation as the information discussed is not captured accurately or clearly communicated. If you are someone who is required to take formal, factual records of meetings and distribute points of action after such, this is the course for you! This course is popular among PAs and administrators as Minute Taking is a pivotal element of their role but it can also be suitable for any role within an organisation.
Attending this course will allow delegates confidence in their note taking abilities and will address challenges faced by delegates such as filtering information and applying best practice of minute taking in the context of their organisation’s needs.
The Minute Taking course focuses on drawing out key points and making relevant notes around the needs of stakeholders present in the meeting rather than relying on speed-writing. The course highlights on how best to compile clear and concise meeting notes that cover all key points effectively.
