Can anyone refer institutions/web-based/workshops to instruct
copywriters to write effectively for the web.

The writing includes marketing copy, UI / error copy, site
instructional copy, site help copy, etc

Thanks in advance




You should look for courses given by Ginny Redish: www.redish.net.

In the meantime, you should buy her *awesome* book, _Letting Go of the  
Words_. (http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0123694868?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=15P8V7Z7A4834P42N9QT&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=288448501&pf_rd_i=507846 
)


Ginny does excellent in-house workshops, too.

Regards,
Dana
