Simplified Technical English Training for Compliance & Optimum Readability

ASD-STE100 training, Soest, the Netherlands
On 1, 2 December 2014, Shufra Consultancy, a market leader in the field of technical documentation creation organised a succcessful ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English open training course in Soest, the Netherlands.

This two-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. 

Said Ms Shumin Chen, trainer & consultant at Shufra Ltd., "Our trainees come from a wide spectrum of industries ranging from packaging machinery to aircraft ground support equipment (GSE). Although STE was developed for the aerospace industry,  it made a lot of sense to apply the same principles to other industries and types of documents as well. "

Shufra's certified ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English training course provides participants with highly objective, practical and achievable steps towards writing in a concise, clear and consistent manner. The balance between compliance and optimum readability is the primary objective for any technical writing professional who wants to write proficiently in STE.

In search of technical authoring tools?


A checker software does not think in the writer's place. Simplified Technical English training, although only a fraction of the cost of such supposed “full implementation”, achieves 75% of the benefits and results of an approach that includes checker software. Bear in mind that using checker software without proper training will do more harm than good. The tool cannot replace the writer, although it can certainly assist him.
