    points to be covered and conclusion sections.

    use bullet points whenever possible and add


    graphs or charts if they are easy to understand.

    using headings, summary statements,
    separate sections, and clear paragraphs
    use a catchy heading for each new section and
    write a few attention-grabbing lines in the
    beginning as an introduction.
    the body of the report should be short, factual
    and organized under outline headings if it
    covers a multipart topic.

    any reference notes belong at the bottom

    attach any documents that are referenced in


    your report .

    the conclusion section is the proper place for evaluations,


    suggestions for further action and questions.

    keep yourself out of it unless you are required to provide


    analysis or your own opinion.

    mark each point of information with a heading or a bullet


    point and keep the text to one or two short paragraphs.
    REVISING THE REPORT
    use certain reviewing tools for proofreading
    and finding grammar mistakes, but make sure
    you read it yourself at least once more.

    submit it as quickly as possible.
