‘I just love our policies!’

You’re not likely to hear anyone making this statement — whether it’s a public servant talking about their own organisation’s internal policies, or a citizen talking about the policies that govern their lives.

Watch this free online workshop to learn about how to write policies that people actually want to follow. You’ll discover ways to make your written policies more cooperative and readable, from internal operational policy to external government policy.

Who should watch:

This workshop is for any public servant or policymaker who wants to improve your policy-writing skills, whether you work directly on a team drafting policy for citizens, or an internal team writing rules and policies for your organisation.
