Practical tips for technical writing
October 4th, 2010 | 
Author: Superb writing skills are not the first thing that comes to mind when talking about a technical translator’s skill set.
The focus is usually on subject-matter expertise or methods for terminology research.
Those are crucial, but good technical writing is a third skill that can be developed and one that improves translation quality quickly.
This session will give practical tips for ‘into English’ technical translators.
The speaker’s aim will be to pass on methods that help us deliver higher quality texts that convey information effectively, precisely, clearly and briefly.
Useful resources and Style Guides will be considered.
This 45-minute session by Karen M. Tkaczyk, PhD, CT, will offer plenty of time for interaction and questions.
