I have read a couple of articles--and one book--saying that we will need to start proving that our training is effective by providing after-the-class assessment. Although I do know of at least one training company that offers assessments and feedback after the class, I am deducing that conducting assessments is not the norm.

I still meet editors who treat the word none as a singular word, as in "none of the books is returnable," whereas most grammar guides started listing none as being plural or singular depending on its referent as long ago as 1983. But that battle was lost in the early 1990s. Dictionaries now list the verb form as a legitimate word.

If you consult a grammar book, you will get the clear answer that a sentence should end with a period (or other closing punctuation mark). In printed training books, our style here at IconLogic is to omit periods at the ends of individual commands in bulleted lists, simply to limit visual clutter. The idea is that less is more.
