Tedopres to speak at DefDoc 2010 on STE, Asset Maintenance and Augmented Reality

March 17, 2010

Simplified Technical English (ASD-STE100) makes technical English easy to understand, thus stimulating the (global) acceptance of technical content and preventing miscommunication which can lead to injury, damage and liability issues. In addition, the use of STE facilitates standards such as S1000D and ATA iSpec2200, resulting in additional benefits for content.

At DefDoc 2010, taking place from May 18-20 in Melbourne, Australia, content quality advocate Berry Braster of Tedopres will host a workshop to explain the benefits of STE using case studies, and show how overall cost, time to market, and content volume will be reduced considerably.

In addition, Berry will discuss how STE is part of the total content solution, introducing the audience to: 

• Simplified Illustrations, how to efficiently create illustrations
• Asset Maintenance Management, which received the Innovation Award from the Dutch Ministry of Defense
• Augmented Reality, the future of technical communication
