Do you need to write technical documentation at work?

Naturally you do the best you can with your writing. You've probably asked your technical specialists if it's accurate, or you've asked someone to proof check it for you. But is that the best way to go about writing manuals?

Whatever your role at work, you may have been given the task of writing the company's manuals. You might need to write a new manual in a hurry, or update an old one. Or create an online Help Guide. But do you have the skills, the best practices needed to produce a first-class Help Guide or Operating Procedure? Have you had a technical writing course?

A small group course in Technical Writing

"The course was useful and informative. Good pace and delivered at a level understandable to the delegates. The most interesting part was the Clear English module, because it's been a long time since I was at school and I slipped into bad habits."
– Glen Norman, PTW & Training Coordinator, LES Engineering, Humberside.

“Very interesting. The content was excellent and meaningful to my job. I learnt a great deal – many things I didn’t know before. I would recommend this course to others.”
– Mandy Raison, Learning & Development Manager, Airborne Systems, Bridgend.

“The training course was very interesting and showed me some basic errors that I currently do without thinking. I learned a lot of details about making documents simpler and more user-friendly. Excellent information.” – Andrew Thalayasignham, Production Engineer, Airborne Systems, Bridgend.

“I did actually use the techniques soon after to produce a report that leads to a request for expenditure approaching 8 figures, which has been well received, so thank you.”
– Richard Carver, Offshore Operations Engineer, Perenco, Norfolk.

“I learned a good understanding of the role of a technical author and what I need to plan and consider. The training day was well-presented and kept my interest throughout. Questions were well answered and discussed.  The course manual provides good post-course resource and will be a good point of reference when I require tips and advice. It was an excellent course.” – Brian Livingstone, BAE Instrument Landing Systems, Telford.

“The course was well planned with effective communication and presentation. I learned how to minimise my writing style and offer more informative, easy to understand guides. Overall, a very good investment of my time.”
– Graham Carter, Telecommunications Dept., University of Bedfordshire.

“Very interesting and enjoyable training session. It made me think twice about how my writing comes over to others, and I’m sure it will help me to get my message across in a simpler and clearer way in future. Definitely worthwhile.”
– Alexander Findlow, Snr Telecomms Engineer, Perenco, Great Yarmouth.
