COURSE FACILITATOR
Dorothy Lim has 20 years of experience in the publishing industry as editor/publisher/trainer. As an Editor in a major publishing firm, she worked with writers and designers to produce quality educational material. In 1992, she founded PublishWrite Consultancy, which was the first and, for many years, the only company providing integrated training in writing, editing, designing and publishing in Singapore.
