SUMMARY:Zoom Session 6 - Strengthening Report Narratives
DESCRIPTION:How Can I Complete My Reports More Quickly Yet More Effectively? \nWhat Can My Department Do to Improve Reports Department-Wide? \nFire and EMS members are often asked to produce reports for which they’ve never received training. Because all reports are public records and because there are many legitimate end users of these reports who rightfully expect to find accurate accounts of incidents\, it is important that report writers are able to submit professionally written reports. This session shares simple tips for strengthening the narrative portion of fire and EMS report narratives. \n\nHow should I organize my report narratives?\nHow can I figure out what is “enough” information?\nWhat should I do about my spelling & grammar issues?\nHow can I provide feedback to my crew’s reports when I’m not sure about the quality of my own?

SUMMARY:Zoom Session 5 - Spelling\, Punctuation\, Proofreading
DESCRIPTION:How can I reduce confusion with punctuation? \nI’ve always struggled with spelling. Can I really do anything about that? \nHow can I proofread when time is limited? \nWhen correct punctuation is omitted or misused\, the writer’s message can get lost or misunderstood. Session 5 will demystify commonly used and confused pieces of punctuation and will inform participants how to continue improving in the area long after the course is finished. This session also tackles the spelling issue in a meaningful and impactful way. \n\nDoes punctuation really matter?\nHow can I get these right: commas\, semicolons\, and colons?\nWhat techniques can be used to proofread efficiently and effectively?

SUMMARY:Oakland Area S6 - Strengthening report narratives
DESCRIPTION:How Can I Complete My Reports More Quickly Yet More Effectively? \nWhat Can My Department Do to Improve Reports Department-Wide? \nFire and EMS members are often asked to produce reports for which they’ve never received training. Because all reports are public records and because there are many legitimate end users of these reports who rightfully expect to find accurate accounts of incidents\, it is important that report writers are able to submit professionally written reports. This session shares simple tips for strengthening the narrative portion of fire and EMS report narratives. \n\nHow should I organize my report narratives?\nHow can I figure out what is “enough” information?\nWhat should I do about my spelling & grammar issues?\nHow can I provide feedback to my crew’s reports when I’m not sure about the quality of my own?\n\nYou may also pay via Venmo @Mary-Sovick
