It allows enrollees to experience these important workshops at their own pace and convenience and is also a must have for those who want to polish their writing skills. We are now offering the module at the special introductory price of $159.00. After March 15, 2012, the price will be $199.00. Containing two workshops in one book, Basic Grammar and Usage is an unbeatable value!

Do You Have Something to Say?
Why Not Be a Speaker at AMWA's 2012 Annual Conference?

The AMWA Annual Conference is fueled by volunteers who share their expertise with conference attendees. If you have experience that can help your colleagues enhance their skills and knowledge, submit a proposal to lead a Short Session or Breakfast Roundtable or to present a Poster!
