Hi all!
I attended Jenna Whitnall's Onboarding and Upskilling session in Denver this year. Part of her presentation was sharing how helpful a style guide can be for updating and creating new documentation. She discussed how a set font, set headers, rules around colors, images etc. can make a documenting procedure much more efficient - the documents already look branded and presentable before they arrive at someone's desk for review. I'm curious if anyone has a style guide they can share here, as or any tips around creating one. We are in the midst of a documentation project at my organization, and I'm so glad Jenna's wise words have stuck with me!
Thanks,
Kristin
Hi Kristin!
I found a "Sample Documentation Template" document somewhere in the depths of this website. Attaching it here for you in case it helps!
Sample_Documentation_Template_How_To (1).docx
Great find! This comes from a pop-up skill builder called Writing Documentation for Your Team. There's other resources linked there and a lot of great info in the webinar, too!
