The issue of professional certification for technical
communicators has reappeared in recent years and prompted
the Society to begin another formal study of the question.
Certification is a form of voluntary credentialing developed
and administered by private, typically non-profit,
organizations. Certification’s value to STC and the
profession is the focus of the Society’s current study. Using
information compiled from focus groups, surveys, and
literature reviews, the Certification Issues Committee has
begun an RFP for a comprehensive feasibility study of
certification. View all 2240 works published by STC Proceedings |
