Why Should You Attend:

Technical Writing in an Industrial Environment differs from general correspondence in that it is written for a specific audience. Technical Writing in an Industrial Environment often consists of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and reports but may apply to any documentation written for a restricted group. Attend this webinar to learn how to easily write any document that your company requires.

Scientists, engineers, IT personnel and statisticians among other highly technical specialists may find writing documents in an industrial environment to be a challenge. You will have to deliver written presentations at some point during their careers. This webinar will provide an overview of the process to create documents in an industrial environment. Learn techniques to communicate contributions and ideas developed to stakeholders.

The process is logical and easily understood. The process describes the location and collection of important information.

How to begin the process

How to appreciate and address comments from reviewers/approvers
How to negotiate when disagreements arise between reviewers/approvers
