Stetson University uses the NALS materials as the foundation for its course. Stetson then has amplified the material with additional review questions, vignettes, and relevant anecdotes to bring the text material to life. Stetson uses experienced lawyers to deliver the course, so their real world experiences help students relate to the various topics. Built into the course are exercises in written communications based on the Gregg Reference Manual, one of the most authoritative and comprehensive texts. Gregg is considered the authority on style, grammar, usage, and formatting.
