-NOTES TO TRAINING OFFICERS.
1. 'OTR WRITING COURSES
WRITING BETTER REPORTS:
The 'number of runnings of the Writing Better.. Reports
from
Course will be increased, beginning.inanuary 1976p
eight to ten a year. Each two-week running of:the-co.urse
will be divided into eight half-day sessions (0900-.1200
hours).' '-Sessions will beheld on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays
and'Fridays. In weeks that include holidays, Wednesday
sessions will be held.
Dates for runnings-of the course. during 1976.. are as
follows:.' 5-16 January, 2 13 _Fe part', 1-12 :March, '5=16 April
3-14 May, 31 May-11 June, .6-16 ,July, 2-13 August, 4-3` October
Writing Better Reports: attempts to improve understanding
of Agency writing, provide better- grasp. of the -key -writing
approaches in the various Agency directorates and make
possible more assured control of important elements of good
writing for intelligence. Class members are expected to
master such aspects as clarity, accuracy, structure and logic.
They are further required to complete a series of writing
exercises, each of which addresses itself to a specific area
of writing problems frequently encountered in the Agency.
Students are given extensive individual counseling by the
instructor, who reviews their work in detail.
EFFECTIVE WRITING COURSE:
The goals of OTR's Effective Writing Course differ from
those of Writing Better Reports in that F.Ieecct'ive Writing
concentrates on such basic English writing aspects as out-
lining, sentence structure, subject/verb agreement, parallelism
and spellings.
Each two-week running of the Effect.'.ve Writing Course
is divided into eight half-day sessions X0900-1200 hours).
Sessions will be held on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and
Thursdays. In weeks that include holidhys, Friday sessions
