  For many of us in government today, email makes up the bulk of our professional communication on a day-to-day basis. Communicating via email is every bit as important as speaking directly to colleagues and customers. Applying email protocols is like a code of conduct that can help you make sure the emails you send are professional and effective.  In this webinar you will learn effective email structures to achieve clarity by formatting messages for maximum readability.  We will discuss the most critical email design step: writing from the reader’s perspective. You will also learn to write effective subject lines and understand the importance of the “call to action”.

Webinar topics include managing e-mail content and volume, following netiquette guidelines, attaching files, and using emoticons effectively. We will cover how to prepare and achieve e-mail message objectives, use correct punctuation, construct effective sentences and paragraphs, edit your e-mail messages before sending, and use active voice.  You will be invited to share with other clerks any tips you find helpful you have learned over the years in preparing effective emails.
