College of African Professional Writers & Journalism CAP ‘J’ is a centre of excellence for writers and journalists. Currently, CAP’J’ is the only writing college in Ghana.

CAPJ SCHOOL OF CREATIVE WRITING AND PUBLIC SPEAKING & COMMUNICATION STRATEGY, IS A TRAINING CENTRE FOR THOSE WHO INTEND TO WRITE BOOKS, IMPROVE ON THEIR WRITING AND PUBLIC SPEAKING SKILLS. Welcome Message

It is our pleasure to introduce to you, College of African Professional Writers & Journalism (CAP‘J’), formerly African Christian Writers Institute, a place where professional writing is emphas

ized and celebrated. It serves as an avenue for those who seek to improve on their writing, those who want to know how to write books, both fiction and nonfiction book writing, students who want to know how to do research writing, and those who intend to take writing as a career and those who want to be journalist. The college was set up in the year 2007 because we realized that a lot of Ghanaians struggle to express their thoughts on paper. The country is blessed with intelligent educated people and bright students, but many are not good writers. Many Ghanaians, from the primarily, through the secondary, to the university level and even managers do struggle to express their thoughts effectively on paper. Our aim is therefore to help people to discover their dream of becoming writers or authors. Not only that, but also to help those with poor writing skills to improve. The College began on the 19th of April 2007 at the Calvary Baptist Church, Circle Branch and has since trained a lot of Pastors, Workers, University and Journalism Students to write professionally and also in Public Speaking. Some beneficiaries of our writing programmes now have their own books and some are also contributing articles to newspapers. We Also Take Contracts For:

Book Editing
Transcribing Sermons or Pulpit messages into books for Pastors,
Writing Biographies, News Letters, and Speeches
PR Services
Production of Magazines
TV Documentaries and
Media Consultancy

CERTIFICATE IN PUBLIC SPEAKING & COMMUNICATION STRATEGY ( 059311108/0592878146)
Many people think that, Public Speaking is just like talking or conversation; but no, Public speaking goes beyond talking or conversation.
Even though, public speaking looks like conversation, it has a different approach, which is not casual. When you speak in public you must invoke some emotions. You must also adjust your voice to be heard not shouting. Your ideas must be knitted together, your tone, eye contact, body language, mannerism are all important. What you say and how you say it all matters.
How do I speak when I want to inform, educate, persuade or entertain? How do I make my talk convincing? How do i overcome fear/Nervousness and speak with confidence?
