Seminar Summary:

Technical writing in the Pharmaceutical Industry is a highly specialized field. Technical writing differs from general correspondence in that it is written for a specific audience. Technical writing is a balancing act between being precise enough to cover the subject matter yet general enough to apply to other situations and/or projects. It often consists of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and reports but may apply to any documentation written for a restricted group. Technical writing always includes reviewers. (see full course description)
