Communications Training

Polish your writing and editing with Quo Vadis in Cape Town

Thu, 21 May 2009 10:08

Vacancies still exist for the Quo Vadis Organisational Communications course being held in Cape Town in mid year.

The course, which has become a firm favourite among Corporates and NGOs, runs over six days in June and July. A break between the two three-day sessions enables participants to complete course work and gain valuable on-hand experience.

Quo Vadis Communications' clients include blue-chip corporates such as Vodacom, Italtile, Nedbank, South African Breweries, Wendy Machanik Properties, Ellerines, Johnson & Johnson and Ultimate Sports Nutrition.

Their religious and non-profit organisations also include prestigious clients such as the Archbishop of Cape Town, the Salvation Army, the National Olympic Committee of South Africa, Idasa and Sangoco.

The course is structured to ensure maximum delegate participation so that participants will go back to their places of work equipped to provide the editorial expertise required for their organisations.

Quo Vadis research indicates that an increasing number of corporates in South Africa rely on outsourced services for their writing, editing, media relations, training and other marketing communications needs.

Quo Vadis has earned an outstanding reputation for its training. Theo Coggin, principal tutor, has been presenting the courses for some 30 years.

“The response to the outline of our courses continues to be exceptional”, says Coggin. “This doesn’t surprise me, as it is an outcome of our particular philosophy, which is based on meeting clients’ specific needs.”

The course has earned plaudits from past delegates and their supervisors.

Burgie Ireland, who went on to become a writer for Your Pregnancy and Your Baby magazines after attending a course, said; “The course changed my life – I moved from dreaming of being a writer to becoming one. I am ever grateful to Theo Coggin and his Quo Vadis team for setting me on the path to where I am today.”

Poovi Pillay, a Financial Strategist who attended a previous Nedbank course, praised his experience, saying “Communication is everyone’s responsibility, and this course added value as a communicating catalyst.”

The fee for the Cape Town course has been kept at last year’s levels – R6,834.30 Inclusive of VAT and various discounts as well as an early bird discount is still available. More details are available from Quo Vadis Communications at 011 487 0026 or email Chantal.
