STE helps to make translations cheaper and more accurate. \nSTE can easily be adapted to all technical industries and beyond. Ms. Shumin Chen will show 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 frequent incorrect use of common STE writing rules. \nWhat customers are saying..\nI am giving this training a 10/10. There was a good introductory and explanation to describe the 2-day training seminar. Rule 1.1 0 lets me use words that are: approved in the dictionary / technical names / technical verbs and is one rule I like very much because of its flexibility. \nI think rule 1.1 is the most critical and important for STE dictionary. Sometimes I have to use non-approved words as an exception\, but I will try to keep this rule 1.1 in my documents for good measure. \nAlthough some of the exercises were tricky\, they remind me of each rule application at that time. So they were practical for my role as a technical writer. \nI want to recommend this course to current technical writers in Korea or engineers who are interested in writing their own documents effectively. Seung Eun Lee\, Technical Writer\, DB HiTek \nOnline STE Workshop Outline*\nWe’re committed to providing the highest quality learning experience in all our online workshops.

She kept the course interesting and was always open to our questions/feedback. The introduction to Simplified Technical English has been greatly beneficial for my understanding of what the specification entails. In terms of preferred rules\, I cannot pinpoint a specific set of STE writing rules as they are all valuable. This was my favorite part of the course as I enjoyed analyzing how other writers went about using STE to best apply it to their line of work. \nThe rewriting workshop was my favorite part of the course as I enjoyed analyzing how other writers went about using STE to best apply it to their line of work. I would highly recommend this course to all technical writers. Shumin Chen takes the time to clearly explain the rules of STE. A very attentive instructor\, indeed.

STE helps to make translations cheaper and more accurate. Often a formal requirement for aircraft and defence maintenance documentation\, STE can easily be adapted to all technical industries and beyond.

I’ve a background in plain language\, so for example the rule on noun clusters makes perfect sense. I’m all about simplification\, so substituting verbs like “eliminate” for verbs like “remove” or “stop” will be my new quest. The STE exercises were helpful in getting to grasp with STE during the training workshop. I’d very likely recommend this course to anyone planning to introduce STE as it’s got a great practical angle. Jenni Virtaluoto\, PhD\, Senior Lecturer\, University of Jyväskylä\, Finland \nASD-STE100 Trainer’s qualifications\nMs. Shumin Chen\, principal trainer & consultant at Shufrans TechDocs received her professional on-the-job training in the field of STE under the tutelage of Dr Frans Wijma\, a linguist and documentation expert. Together as an experienced global team\, they provided their combined knowledge and dedication to benefit customers worldwide. To date\, they have provided training and consultancy services to over 200 companies. Shufrans TechDocs is the only company with such vast experience in providing certified STE training. \nShumin has supported various companies with their STE and other documentation needs\, based on standards where possible. Although STE was developed for the aerospace industry\, more specifically for aircraft maintenance documentation\, she found that it made a lot of sense to apply the same principles to other industries and types of documents as well. Few -if any- changes to the specification are necessary to adapt STE to industrial sectors ranging from machinery to IT\, automotive to medical equipment. \n \n  \n  \n\nDownload the STE training curriculum \n
