Format for Emails and Letters:

All memos and emails should use proper headings:

Emails: TO: From: Date: Subject should be included as the heading for an email or memo. Emails should not be emailed but submitted as a WORD documents using the emails headings.

Letters should have both the sender's and receiver's addresses, the date, a greeting, closing, and signature. Subject lines should have first, last, and important words capitalized. The subject line should be specific to the document and only 5-6 words. Refer to your notes for additional information.

All 3 documents (emails, memos and letters) should follow the 3 paragraph format:

Paragraph 1 is a short paragraph that provides the purpose of the document.

Paragraph 2 provides the details and if there are many, break the information into 2 paragraphs.

Paragraph 3 provides any contact and/or response information.

If you use this type of format, you will also be able to organize your information for the document.
