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. 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. \nShumin gave us a an all-rounded presentation to Simplified Technical English. Personally\, rule 1.3: To use only approved words with their approved meaning holds the key to successful controlled language implementation. Rules 3.4\, 3.6\, 4.1\, 5.3\, and 5.5 are also among my favourites. The approved verb TO MAKE SURE THAT can come in very handy for technical writers as well. The presentation of STE rules offers quite a detailed overview that includes not only language rules but good\, old technical authoring principles in general. It has been very helpful for us to learn and understand the concept of STE. I have found Shumin to be very competent in STE and will defnitely recommend her course!

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 180 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\, Shumin 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 industries ranging from machinery to IT\, automotive to medical equipment. \n \n\nDownload the STE training curriculum
