Training development
Training is one service from TechScribe. We recently won a contract to deliver an author training course to a multinational transportation company. The authoring course is designed to help aircraft engineers who write work instructions.
Community involvement
Mike Unwalla was recently re-elected as Director of the Sheffield Business Club. During his first term of office, he helped to re-establish the Marketplace—a business-to-business e-mail marketing system.
Resources
Four new articles on the TechScribe website deal with:
- How to write for an international audience.
- The Information Mapping method of structured writing.
- An introduction to context-sensitive help.
- Bindings for printed documents.
Computer Weekly recently explained how "Technical writers reduce pressure on the IT helpdesk" (www.computerweekly.com/feature/Rise-in-web-based-help-opens-up-career-path-for-technical-writers). We are pleased to note that TechScribe received a favourable mention.
