Technical writing

Develop professional and accurate technical documents that will be understood and well received by their intended audience. As well as accurate, your technical documents have to be concise, precise and readable. This hands-on seminar is aimed at product managers, engineers, and technicians who need to communicate requests, findings, explanations or instructions clearly – in a concise, precise and easily understood way.

There was lots of practice! I was expecting something a lot different, I have been to many trainings before (not with Target). The training was actually much better than I expected. I hope my next training will be with Target too.
