Whitireia New Zealand has been offering NZQA-accredited publishing and editing training in Aotearoa New Zealand for more than thirty years.

We offer a Graduate Diploma in Publishing (Applied) and micro-credentials in editing. Our courses are developed and run in partnership with the industry, and our graduates have an excellent employment rate, both nationally and internationally.

Our highly regarded diploma is modelled on an apprenticeship in publishing, focusing on practical experience and industry connections. All tutors are experienced industry practitioners. Students complete work placements in publishing firms and learn from guest speakers from all aspects of the publishing ecosystem. They also work in groups to publish real projects – covering all the tasks from project planning and management, through editing and typesetting, to publicity and marketing.

Our editing micro-credentials were developed with the aim of creating a flexible, easy-to-access training and professional development option. They are delivered online, and designed for self-directed, self-paced study. As such, they are perfect for people already in the workplace who want to sharpen or develop their language skills, as well as anyone wanting to learn more about the art and practicalities of editing.

Micro-credentials are smaller than a qualification and are designed to meet the needs of employers, industry and/or communities. Whitireia Publishing’s micro-credentials cover:

• grammar and punctuation
• copy-editing

Our ISO-aligned editing system transforms writing at work into writing that works. Our clear communication techniques speed up decision-making, streamline processes and avoid confusion. They get results. Every document, every day.

We help you create:

• shorter reports that save readers time and effort
• simpler proposals with clear recommendations that managers can act on
• concise letters that tell customers exactly what they need to do
• well-designed templates that significantly reduce drafting time
• clearer webpages that readers find easy to navigate.

Our accredited editors are qualified, highly skilled professionals with extensive editing experience and professional experience in other sectors. And we know that no 2 clients are the same. Rather than selling off-the-shelf services with fixed prices and timelines, we tailor our work to ensure we’re cost efficient and effective.

We offer 4 services:

• in-depth editing
• writing and style guides
• template development
• writing evaluation.

In-depth editing is a fast fix for any text. Our editors will make sure your text is clear, reader-friendly and precise. We edit everything from fact sheets and web pages to reports, policies and contracts.

Writing and style guides are the tools to support your team. We develop guides covering how to write briefs, letters, reports, decision documents and more. And our style guides cover everything from inclusive language to lists.

Template development clarifies your message every time. Our templates show writers how to structure their material so that it persuades the reader. Save staff time with templates for texts you write often, such as briefs, letters, reports or legal advices.

Writing evaluation gives you specialist advice when you need it. Our analysis pinpoints what works well and what you can improve, within a single document or across your entire organisation. We recommend clear, specific and doable changes.

Over the past 20 years, we’ve worked with government and corporate clients to help them write with efficiency and purpose.

At a federal level, we’ve worked with Prime Minister and Cabinet, Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australian Tax Office, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, National Disability Insurance Scheme, and Services Australia.

At a state level, we’ve worked with the departments of Premier and Cabinet in NSW and Victoria, Community Service (NSW), Education (ACT, Qld), Health (SA), Health and Human Services (Tas), and Justice and Community Safety (Vic).

Our corporate clients include Corrs Chambers Westgarth, Gilbert + Tobin, Holding Redlich, King & Wood Mallesons Turks Legal, AIA, CBA, Macquarie Bank, MLC, QBE, Suncorp and TAL.

We also work with not-for-profit organisations, including the Asylum Seekers Centre, Cancer Council, World Wildlife Fund, MusicNSW and SDN Children’s Services.

Contact us today to:

• lift the quality of briefs and recommendations to send up the approval chain
• shorten reports or technical documents
• prevent readers from overlooking or misunderstanding key points
• ensure people follow policies and procedures
• reduce follow-up calls after you send out letters.

After a 25-year global communications career in international organisations that led her to Sydney, Australia, Daniela Cavalletti founded Cavalletti Communications. Over time, she carefully built a buoyant business that serves our clients as well as our team and creative collaborators.

As a full-service copywriting agency we work with organisations across the country and around the world. No matter who or where – from small businesses and local councils, via charities and governments, to global agencies and corporates – we create words that matter.

In an industry where lone freelancers dominate the field, we are able to assign the ideal specialist or team of experts to each of your projects. Our wordsmiths form ongoing connections with each client organisation, creating close reliable working relationships.

As a result, we can provide a consistent professional level of service, quality and certainty.

Building a respected, award-wining business of good reputation takes time and effort, and we are fiercely protective of our hard-earned good standing. Daniela prides herself in inviting only the most qualified and experienced professionals to join our team, and she trains them carefully in our well-documented business practices.

We are a boutique business with clear proven processes: you can rely on our attention to detail, prompt communication and responsiveness to your needs. Always.

We work with organisations of all types, industries and sizes, matching the perfect writer long-term to each client and their needs:

• We are ideas people who understand business and communication, and the people behind them; not just letters, words and grammar. It’s authentic, relevant and memorable content that we strive for, always.

• Internally and externally, we operate to the highest standards of respect, consideration and professionalism, and make positive lasting impressions on all who do business with us.
• Our good reputation is based on well-written pieces that have substance, purpose and that deliver what they, and we, promise.
