SUMMARY:Report Writing Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Before you reserve your place\, please note this online seminar
  will be broadcast using the zoom video conferencing platform and will las
 t for 3 hours on Tuesday the 5th of May 2026 at 10.00am UK London time. Th
 e seminar is open to IIMS members and non-members.\n\nYour hosts and prese
 nters for this seminar are Paul Homer\, IIMS Chairman of Standards and Mik
 e Schwarz\, IIMS Chief Executive Officer.\n\nIIMS receives too many survey
 or complaints each year\, generally caused by poor writing standards and s
 kills\, some of which are serious in nature. And the situation is not impr
 oving. A report is the surveyor’s intellectual property and he/she lives
  or dies by it. This maximum three-hour online course\, featuring a lot of
  up-to-date and fresh content brings the art of report writing bang up to 
 date. The aim is to provide the essential information that a yacht and sma
 ll craft surveyor needs to consider when gathering the information and the
 n compiling his/her report. There are suggested clauses for use in the rep
 ort to protect against possible litigation and advice in the event that so
 mething goes wrong. Additionally\, there is advice on contracts and terms 
 of business and how\, when and where these should be used. There is also\,
  a practical session and delegates will be required to do a little prepara
 tion before the seminar in readiness and will be encouraged to contribute 
 their thoughts. So\, if you want to tidy up and strengthen your report wri
 ting skills this is a good place to start.\n\nScope of the Seminar\nPart I
 : Preparing for survey\, gathering data and compiling your report\nPart II
 : Giving the client what they want and not what the surveyor thinks they w
 ant\nPart III: Valuation Reports\nPart IV: Complaints\, examples and pract
 ical exercises\n\nWho should attend this seminar?\nThe report writing semi
 nar is aimed specifically at yacht and small craft surveyors\, both those 
 who are less experienced\, but also those who feel they would benefit from
  a refresher.\n\nThe cost of the seminar is £75. On receipt of your booki
 ng\, your joining instructions will be sent no later than one week before 
 the event. To book your place on this seminar\, please complete the form b
 elow.\n\nAfter the seminar\, delegates will receive a copy of the presenta
 tion and a certificate of attendance by email. Three CPD points may be cla
 imed by IIMS members who participate in this online seminar.\n\nPlease not
 e it is not our policy to make a refund in the event you book and subseque
 ntly fail to attend online.\n\n&nbsp\;
