Program Description
Proofamatics is a classroom-based workshop introduced via a pilot course conducted by Vital Learning Corporation. The course provides several types of exercises from which participants learn a variety of crucial skills. Topics include: a grammar/spelling review, consistency in capitalization and style, and a proofreading system that enables trainees to search for specific types of errors. Participants also perform exercises designed to strengthen eye muscles, reduce eye fatigue, and relax stressed muscles.

Each course trains as many as 20 people in one session, which typically runs two and one-half hours per day for four days. Also, instructors are certified to teach Proofamatics in-house in an additional 6-8 hours of instruction. Instructors learn how to apply Proofamatics techniques to the organization\'s style.
