Training
Outline
We train people with no or little experience in the field of technical writing and help them acquire basic knowledge and gain some practical skills. Our general introductory course balances theory with practical exercises. The theoretical part gives participants the framework of technical writing, basic concepts, and guidelines. It also points to further resources and materials. The exercises offer participants a chance to practice their skills and receive personal feedback on their work.
Format
Know and do workshop includes theory and practice. Each session ends with the application of acquired skills. The practical exercises can be adjusted to meet specific needs or be drawn from a specific domain.
