Write with purpose—craft clear, compliant, and actionable policies that drive real organizational impact.

Effective policies are essential for organizations to ensure consistency, accountability, and compliance with legal and regulatory standards. Introduction to Policy Writing will equip participants with the knowledge and practical skills to write clear, concise, and effective policies that align with organizational goals.

Participants will explore the fundamental principles of policy writing, including the purpose and structure of policies, the distinction between policies, procedures, and guidelines, and the importance of clarity and consistency. Best practices such as using active voice, defining key terms, and maintaining accessibility will be emphasized. Participants will analyze real-world policies to identify essential components, such as scope, compliance measures, and revision protocols.

This 1-day course also focuses on drafting and refining policies to ensure effectiveness and clarity. Participants will engage in hands-on exercises, including drafting a policy statement, applying plain language principles, and peer-reviewing policy sections. Strategies for avoiding ambiguity, structuring policy documents for readability, and conducting effective self-editing and peer-review processes will be covered. Case studies will highlight common pitfalls and solutions in policy writing.

Finally, participants will learn how to effectively communicate and disseminate policies within an organization through various channels. Strategies for training employees, monitoring policy effectiveness through key performance indicators, and gathering feedback for continuous improvement will be discussed.

By the end of this course, participants will have the tools and confidence to create well-structured, effective policies to enhance organizational efficiency and compliance.

In this session, Dr. Todd will explore how she uses this approach in an effort to remove barriers for students who have diverse learning needs, reduce reliance on formal (or informal) accommodations, decrease student anxiety, and increase student engagement through choice and autonomy.

Registration is required for this event.
