How would you like to be able to take notes quickly and easily without learning a complicated shorthand system?  This course will help you develop the practical, proven skills of speedwriting using the EasyScript System.

What is EasyScript? It is a set of simple rules which allow you to abbreviate any word in the English language and write more quickly.
 As you work through the lessons in this course, you will learn techniques and complete practice activities to help you take faster notes.   EasyScript is easy to master, and to transcribe.  You can begin using it right away, as you learn it.
 
EasyScript is different from most other shorthand/speedwriting systems because there are no random symbols to learn or remember. Instead, it uses only some basic writing rules, and abbreviations we already know. You can use EasyScript to more quickly write every word in the English language.
Enroll today! This is a self-paced, online course. You have 6 months to finish. An instructor will monitor your progress and assess your body of work at course completion. UniversalClass™ offers many wonderful learning tools to help you get the most out of your online course, including an online portfolio service that manages all your course completions.
