How to Write Effective Policies and Procedures

Well-written policies and procedures provide direction to employees, clarify expectations about the way your business runs, help avoid inconsistencies and protect your company from possible legal action or fraud. Are you prepared to take on the important task of writing clear, easy-to-read policies that are not likely to be misinterpreted?

This LIVE, virtual course provides you with all the training you need to write effective policies and procedures. Employees at every level are asked to follow these guidelines, so it’s essential for you to understand the reasons for writing policies…how to convey the information in a sincere, straightforward manner…and the most diplomatic and direct methods for introducing and enforcing them.

You’ll also gain useful design and organizational tips for policy manuals that are easy-to-understand and user-friendly. Finally, you’ll discuss the principles of policy implementation — including tactics you can use when employees are resistant to change.

Participant Takeaways

The trainer did an excellent job. I was interested in taking this training because my current role is reviewing organization's policies and procedures to ensure they comply with State licensing standards. This training provided me with a lot of useful information to help me in my job, and will help me in providing feedback to organizations about how they can improve their existing P&Ps.

Love your enthusiasm and how you've framed the class to make it relatable and fun! I loved how thorough you were about each step of the process and addressing things that are outside of building procedures, but still affected by it like how to get started and how to measure its effectiveness.
