Do you write, edit or approve content for work? The Australian Government Style Manual is for you. Use it to create clear and consistent content that meets the needs of users.
The Style Manual contains rules and guidance about:
- accessible and inclusive content
- writing and designing content
- grammar, punctuation and conventions
- different content types
- how to structure content
- referencing and attribution.
Good content is an essential part of effective communication and digital service delivery. Content takes many forms, including emails, briefs, reports, social media and other digital media. Everyone who writes for government can benefit from using the Style Manual.
Learn more about the Style Manual in a short video on this page.
