Neuroscience research shows the the less work audiences need to put into reading, the more they will find sources credible, and the better they will connect with the messages. You will learn the most up-to-date techniques, drawn from neuroscience, linguistics, and cognitive psychology. We'll explore both why and how to make the reader's work easier and fluent.

What do you have in common with your readers?
You are all human! You can easily connect with that. Just take advantage of what science tells us about how the brain processes information to write that information so it is easy for the reader.
Cheryl offers several ways for you to learn to do this:
1. Personal Coaching-professional development
2. Online Webinars
3. In-depth Online Course-Plain Language Academy
