Conclusion

Overall, the knowledge I have gained by completing these assignments in my English 470 course will benefit my greatly when I finish graduate school and begin my endeavors in the workplace as a speech pathologist. I will be needing to write resumes and cover letters for job applications and once I am hired, I will need to know how to format both documents sent between those in the organization and documents that are sent to others outside of the organization. In taking this course, I feel more confident in my ability to write and format professional documents so that they are clear, concise, concrete and specific, courteous, coherent, constructive, and correct. Before taking this course, I was unaware of the number of professional documents that are written in the workplace on a regular basis and did not know how to create these types of documents. The assignments I have completed and shared on this blog demonstrate this newly acquired skill and I am excited to share my work. This class has opened the door for me to learn the new still of creating and formatting professional documents that I did not know I was lacking. I look forward to putting this knowledge to use when I enter the workplace.
