AP style is the standard for credibility in journalism, PR and corporate communications. But the rules don’t stay still. With every new edition, the Stylebook reshapes how we write about identity, technology, politics and culture. If your writing isn’t aligned, your credibility—and your organization’s reputation—are on the line.

On November 18, join Grammar Girl, Mignon Fogarty—New York Times bestselling author and one of the most trusted voices on writing—for a focused, fast-paced session. You’ll leave with practical answers to the toughest style questions facing communicators right now, including:

  • The most important 2026 AP Stylebook updates—and what they mean for your copy.
  • Pronouns, precision, and politics of language: how to navigate sensitive topics with authority.
  • AP’s evolving guidance on generative AI: where the rules are clear, and where they aren’t.
  • Exceptions that trip up even pros: serial commas, tricky grammar traps and usage debates.

Whether you’re polishing press releases, writing web copy, or cleaning up executive emails, you’ll walk away ready to boost credibility, maintain consistency and write like a pro who knows what’s next. Don’t wait until your copy is outdated—get the rules right, right now.

Reserve your spot today—because if you’re not up-to-date on AP style, you’re already behind.

Don't miss this unique opportunity!
