In today’s environment—where automated translation engines and generative tools can rapidly scale output but also multiply linguistic errors—upstream standardisation is more critical than ever. Consequently\, by eliminating ambiguity and enforcing strict syntactic control\, STE protects your documentation pipeline\, cuts translation costs\, and prevents operational risks. \nApplicable across aerospace\, defence\, engineering\, and high-compliance industries\, this foundational training is led by Shumin Chen. Designed for technical managers\, directors\, and senior writers\, the programme ensures participants learn how to correctly and effectively apply STE rules in practice\, navigate common writing pitfalls\, and avoid frequent misinterpretations. Furthermore\, you will learn how to correct guidelines that undermine technical quality. \nApplicable across aerospace\, defence\, engineering\, and high-compliance industries\, this foundational training is led by Shumin Chen. Designed for technical managers\, directors\, and senior writers\, the programme ensures participants learn how to correctly and effectively apply STE rules in practice\, navigate common writing pitfalls\, and correct the frequent misinterpretations of core guidelines that undermine technical quality. \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. Therefore\, we’ve made the decision to cap all our online workshop session sizes at just five participants\, starting 5 May 2025. \nThis intimate virtual environment fosters richer discussions\, more personalised feedback\, and a greater overall impact on your understanding and application of key technical communication standards like Simplified Technical English. Learn better\, communicate better\, across all our courses. This two-day Online STE Workshop includes interactive training\, exercises\, and a 120-day post-training consultation. \nDay 1: Classroom Training \n\nPractical overview of Simplified Technical English (ASD-STE100) and why strict structural control is essential for modern technical documentation.\nHow STE ensures absolute clarity for both native and non-native speakers across global audiences.\nThe direct risk-mitigation and cost benefits of adopting the STE international writing standard in high-compliance environments.\nCore writing rules and how to apply them systematically in daily practice.\nMastering the general vocabulary lexicon: Approved and unapproved words\, and the strict structural rationale behind them.\nEliminating ambiguous phrasing\, noun clusters\, and syntactic drift that undermine technical accuracy.\nEstablishing a rigorous baseline for clear\, human-readable documentation that withstands automated review and translation workflows.\n\nDay 2: Application\, Review\, & Exercises \n\nHow to deal with industry-specific terminology and integrate specialized nouns safely into controlled writing.\nHow to apply STE across various documentation types (such as maintenance manuals\, service bulletins\, and operating procedures).\nHow to implement STE frameworks with minimal disruption to ongoing production and existing documentation archives.\nPractical hands-on workshop session for applying strict STE rules directly to your own company documents.\nReview\, edit\, and discuss participants’ own documents to reinforce learning through actual correction.\nCollaborative review of common error patterns and alternative phrasing solutions.\nFinal classroom presentation and editorial breakdown of your documents to establish a repeatable\, high-integrity quality standard for your team.\n\n* Shufrans also offers customised ASD-STE100 training solutions tailored to meet your specific requirements. These courses are normally provided at the customer’s premises. \nWhy select a Simplified Technical English training with Shufrans?\nShumin is a very knowledgeable STE instructor. 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. If given the chance\, I would really enjoy working along side her.
