Aloha,
We are pleased to share an upcoming training opportunity on plain language titled “Busting Bureaucratic Writing.” This workshop is designed to support clearer, more effective communication with our communities.
The training will be led by Melanie Sampson from the Clear Language Lab.
We encourage participants to first view the on-demand training, “Introduction to Plain Language: Writing Clearly and Effectively to Our Communities,” available through the DHRD Adobe Learning platform, as this live workshop builds on that content.

Two identical live sessions will be offered via Zoom:
• April 28, 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/uUYevHt1SvmBc5e3bMJfnA
• April 30, 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/nx5eYAzNRh-mLBy9Sdmx3w

Please note: These sessions will not be recorded. An on-demand version of the training will be available by June through the DHRD ALM platform.

Feel free to share this opportunity with your networks.
If you have any questions, please contact Wei Geng Lum at WeiGeng.Lum@doh.hawaii.gov.

This webinar will focus on features that can make writing overly complex or wordy and provide suggestions to apply to your work. Trainer: Melanie Sampson from the Clear Language Lab
