ATA2300 training :
Putting the specification into practice

Overview of the ATA2300 practical application training

This practical training aims to deepen the methods and rules of the ATA 2300 specification so that the technical writer can apply it to their projects.

The ATA2300 specification addresses the production needs for operating manuals and other documents intended in particular for pilots and flight crews. It results from standardization work carried out jointly by the European Aerospace and Defence Industries Association (ASD) and the Air Transport Association (ATA). As such, it implements many concepts from the S1000D standard.
