Lufthansa Systems chose Shufra ASD-STE100 training

Lufthansa Systems FlightNav Inc. Zürich recommends the professional and qualified ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English training provided by Dr. Frans Wijma from Shufra Consultancy.
Lufthansa Systems FlightNav, a provider of one-stop flight navigation services, with more than a hundred customers worldwide, recently engaged the ASD Simplified Technical English training services of Shufra Consultancy.

Correct and easy to understand information is essential to safe flight operations and increasingly, our customer deals with countries where English is at best a second language and the aim is to communicate with aviation professionals globally where language is a facilitator rather than a burden.

Realising the advantages of a trained STE writer over checker tools

Simplified Technical English or ASD-STE100 is an aerospace specification that provides guidelines for creating standardised, unambiguous and accurate documentation. By adopting a standardised writing approach, cost savings of 30% can be expected. 

Course participants see the ASD-STE100 language standard not merely as a cost reduction strategy, but also as a fundamental prerequisite for precise and safe navigation during flight. Shufra’s ASD-STE100 training class has been customised on every occasion to meet our customers’ specific professional requirements, as well as to encourage and mould technical writers’ creativity. 

Our Simplified Technical English training achieves 75% of the benefits and results of an approach that focuses on checker software, bearing in mind that the indiscriminate use of checker software available in the market without proper guidance will do more harm than good.
