Please Note The Following Changes To Courses From 1st January 2025

To help you develop your writing The Writers Bureau has been updating its approach to your studies. Over recent years we have introduced a new website with a Writers’ Community as well as optional Zoom study sessions and workshops. Students have loved these changes and have found them useful in helping them to develop their skills and sell their work.

  • The Proofreading and Copy Editing CPD course will be closed to new students from 30th June 2025

  • Marking for writing courses prior to 2025 will end on 31st December 2025 (30th June 2026 for Proofreading).

  • There will be new shorter writing courses available from January 2025 along with our Zoom workshops, review service, mentoring, writing groups and community. Keep an eye on your inbox for announcements.

New Courses

The final phase of our updates starts in January 2025 when we will introduce our new courses. These will:

  • be short, bite-sized courses on specific areas of writing
  • have between one to three tutor-marked assignments for practice and feedback from a professional writer
  • have time-limits between two and six months helping to keep you focused and motivated
  • have a free 7-day trial period.

Courses will help you to:

  • develop your craft and voice
  • navigate the publishing industry
  • take your writing in a new direction

For the duration of you course you will have:

  • access to our friendly and supportive Writers’ Community 
  • free Zoom study sessions where you can ask questions 
  • WB HQ student services to help and advise you.

 

No matter which course you choose to study, or when you decide to enrol, we give you the help and support you need to achieve your writing ambitions.
