Training & workshop highlights

ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English (STE) is a controlled language that is used to write technical manuals in such a way that they can be more easily understood by an international audience. Our global training workshops equip technical communication professionals with the right STE writing skill sets to create technical content that is user and reader friendly, hence easier and more cost effective to translate.

Often a formal requirement for aircraft and defence maintenance documentation, STE can easily be adapted to all technical industries. Ms. Shumin Chen will teach participants how to correctly and effectively use STE in practice. She will also address some of the mistakes commonly found in technical writing and the frequently incorrect use of common STE writing rules.

“I am glad to say the STE course attended by my team was really satisfactory. Feedback is very positive and we will be interested in repeating the experience in the near future.Top Qualities: Personable, Expert, On Time” Felix Donoso, Translation Manager, arvato technical information S.L.
