You can. 

Hire experienced technical writers that don't require a learning 
curve. What you are paying for with new software is not the CERTAINTY 
of needing training...what you are paying for is that your EXISTING 
writers cannot pick it up as soon as they pick it up. THAT'S the cost 
of getting writers on the cheap. 

Bring in writers at a little higher money, with experience, and even 
if the writer never saw the particular application, you will get 
production in a very short time, maybw within hours.
