3-day certified ASD-STE100 workshop in Suwon, South Korea

2015년 6월 1일~3일까지 수원에서 열리는 ASD-STE100 트레이닝 클래스에 여러분을 초대합니다.

In association with HansemEUG, we are pleased to offer our certified, fully compliant shared ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English training in Suwon, South Korea on 1, 2, and 3 Jun 2015. This three-day professional training course is intended for technical authors to familiarise themselves with the ASD-STE100 controlled language specification through a series of classroom- and workshop-type instruction and interaction. STE improves quality, both in the aviation and defence industries, where it is often mandatory for safety reasons, and in any other technical industries. 

Simplified Technical English stresses on the use of unambiguous terminology where one word only has one meaning. This reduces the likelihood of using synonymous terms that can result in confusion. Optimum re-usability of technical terms on the word, phrase, and sentence levels is to be expected. This will greatly improve any product life-cycle management process.

HansemEUG is South Korea’s largest group of technical writers and is one of few manual development companies in Asia to author source documents in English. HansemEUG develops user manuals for a variety of industries since 1990. The industries that they serve include telecommunication, digital imaging, automation systems, and business machine products manufactured by global companies.

ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English training workshop in Pune, India

On 29 - 30 April 2015, Shufra Consultancy in partnership with Metapercept Information Solutions & Consulting will jointly organise a shared ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English training and workshop session in Pune, India.

STE is not an easy language to learn by self-study. This open training class will provide trainees with a great opportunity to learn and then apply each individual rule in a practical context. Ms Shumin Chen, principal trainer and consultant at Shufra. will explain not only what the rule says, but also why it is useful, and how best to apply it.

STE standardises vocabulary, grammar and style, while letting companies control their specific terminology (Technical Names). Benefits of using STE include:

• Compliance with a regulated and well-established standard
• Improved efficiency
• Improved readability
• Improved consistency
• More efficient and effective training
• Less downtime
• Improved safety
• Suitable for global use
• Easier to translate

Writers, editors and other users will need training to start writing in STE. The training comprises explanation of the rules and vocabulary, exercises and tests, as well as writing and editing workshop, dealing with your own documents where possible.
