Content in Context: AI’s Impact  on Tech Writing and Localization

Let's Talk Personalization

Active-duty service members bring discipline, systems thinking, and mission focus—the same traits great technical writers need. In this session, host Dawn Stevens talks with military veteran and entrepreneur Jeremy Lowell about The KYO Group’s DoD SkillBridge program, which pairs industry experts with active-duty military to train them in technical writing and place them on client projects. You’ll hear how SkillBridge works, what makes a strong training track for tech writing, and how hiring managers can tap this pipeline to build capability fast while creating real pathways for veterans transitioning to civilian roles.

Learn how DoD SkillBridge works—including timelines, approvals, compensation, and employer responsibilities—how The KYO Group structures technical-writing training and on-the-job mentorship, and the practical steps to build a veteran talent pipeline from selection and onboarding to conversion to full-time roles. We’ll review the outcomes KYO reports across partners and alumni and define what “good” looks like for host companies. You’ll also get practical tips for veterans and active-duty participants who want to pivot into technical writing—ideal for anyone exploring SkillBridge pathways into this career.

Jeremy Lowell is the Founder and Managing Director of The KYO Group, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business that runs one of the country’s larger SkillBridge programs. Public posts from KYO and Lowell indicate they work with or employ 2,000+ veterans per year.

Keeping Control: How to Manage Content Changes at Scale

In today’s race to produce more content faster, many organizations have turned to the lowest-cost resources available — often resulting in high turnover, inconsistent quality, and a cycle of rework that drains time and money. This “race to the bottom” appears economical at first, but it ultimately undermines both team stability and content effectiveness.

This webinar explores a smarter alternative: using automation strategically to handle repeatable, low-value tasks, and reinvesting those savings into better-qualified, more experienced technical communication professionals. The result? Fewer roles overall, but higher-value ones — enabling your team to focus on designing, governing, and delivering high-quality information products that meet business goals.

Join us to learn how to break free from the churn of high-turnover, low-cost staffing, and build a sustainable content operation that maximizes efficiency, quality, and employee satisfaction. We’ll discuss practical steps to justify investment in automation, identify the right skill sets to retain or hire, and position your technical communication function as a driver of strategic value rather than a cost center.

Dawn Stevens is President and Owner of Comtech Services, where she helps organizations transform their content operations and create strategies that balance quality with efficiency. With more than 30 years of experience in technical communication, she has served in nearly every documentation role, from writer to manager to consultant.

How Not to Get Hired: Tech Writer Job Search, Resume, Interview Disasters

Most teams still treat localization as a late-stage step. Fabiano Cid, the Global Content Wrangler, will chat with Scott Abel about reframing localization as a built-in operating layer—Global Content Experience (GCX)—that powers every market touchpoint. They will discuss how AI creates a shared space where content and localization meet, and how upstream structure enables scale, quality, and measurement.

Fabiano will discuss with Abel why linking GCX to business outcomes that leaders already track is key to winning support for the industrialized content capabilities required in today’s AI-powered world. By mapping GCX to outcomes leaders monitor and work to improve—conversion, task success, and support deflection—internal localization teams can elevate their role in the business, and external providers can more easily sell needed capabilities to decision-makers.
