Pre-enrollment
"A must-have for editors and proofreaders dealing with scientific or technical texts. I learned many editing techniques and was able to immediately put them to practice. My customers were thrilled at how smoothly I could bring clarity and simplicity to intricate constructions and obscure jargon. I would recommend it to anyone!"
Alison Williams, Global Internal Communications Business Partner at Azelis
