The Continuing Development and Education Center at the University of Basrah organized a course on the art of writing formal letters.
The aim of the official letters course is to acquaint the employee with the ways and methods required to write the official letter so that it is of an acceptable quality appropriate to the reputation of the institution, to avoid errors and inappropriate words, to provide the employee with experience in the field of writing official letters and to introduce him/her to the importance of maintaining the appropriate form of the letter in terms of linguistic and aesthetic terms.
The course presented by Dr. Mezher Abdel-Sada Hanin included the definition of official letters from an administrative and technical point of view, the identification of the requirements for writing an official letter, the technical matters to be taken into account when writing an official letter and a review of some official letters.
