can you check for me?
Thanks
Assigment: write a business letter according to the background.
Background:Assume that you’ve worked for the last five years as an
administrative assistant for the Human Resources Department
of Broadworth General Hospital. The Director of Human
Resources, Miriam Hopkins, has charged you with organizing
a two-hour training seminar to be attended by the hospital’s
20 office supervisors. The seminar should cover sexual
harassment and unlawful discrimination in the workplace.
For the last 20 years, the hospital has contracted all training
through the nationally acclaimed Wydade Consulting
Services. Jeremy Dittmer, employee relations specialist, is
manager of the local branch of Wydade. He requires a threemonth
advance notice regarding any training Broadworth
needs so he can supply an appropriate trainer and any materials
that may be required. This is the first time you’ve dealt
directly with Mr. Dittmer.You must also make all necessary arrangements for the seminar, including time, date,
a room at the hospital for training, any resources the trainer needs, any materials those
who attend might need, and light refreshments for a 15-minute break.
Process:1. Create the necessary details for this scenario—for example, your title, the mailing
addresses for the hospital and consulting firm, the dates, the kinds of training
materials used, and so on.
2. Using either full block or modified block, draft a letter to Mr. Dittmer to set up the
seminar. Your letter must have at least two paragraphs and at least eight complete
sentences. Include the following items in your letter:
a. Thanks for the company’s reliable support
b. An explanation of the training need and any special topics to cover
c. A request for a trainer to teach the seminar
d. A request for a list of resources the trainer will need
This is what I have so far.

Keep the comma after "attending," and return that "A" to "a" -- there is no need to start a new sentence here, in addition to NOT starting a sentence with a coordinating conjunction.
How will you correct these?
I don't understand the June 30,2010 part. Shall I put June 30th, 2010?
Corrected:
There will be twenty office supervisors attending, and light refreshments will be provided for breaks.
here's the memo part, the email part will come later. and I understand the date and time thing now. I need to put a period between a.m.
process:
3. Draft an interoffice memorandum to Miriam Hopkins, the Director of Human
Resources:
a. Assume that you’ve received confirmation from Jeremy Dittmer for the date,
time, and materials needed. The trainer he has assigned is Deb Walker
b. Outline the arrangements you’ve made, providing explanations as needed. Your
goal is to assure her that you’ve covered all of the details.
c. Invent any additional details as needed.
here's what I have:
To: Miriam Hopkins
From: Jane Doe
Date: February 20, 2010
Subject: Training seminar
Arrangements have been made for the sexual harassment and unlawful discrimination training seminar on June 30, 2010. It will last for two hours in conference room B.
