Project Management for Writers 
Project management skills are part of every writer's life, in some form or another. However, the more you use these skills to manage your daily work, the more you will grow as a writer. Estimating, controlling scope, and tracking your progress are all part of delivering the product that your "customer" wants. Your primary tool is your documentation plan. In this workshop, we will discuss why these processes are important to you and how to implement them on your job.

ISO 9000 are quality assurance standards that allow companies to do business in Europe and ensure customers that quality processes are in place. As writers, we are very involved in quality standards-both in assisting our companies in recording their quality policies, procedures and instructions and in making sure our own departments follow quality procedures. We can do this through needs analyses, documentation plans, documentation design standards, status reports, usability reviews, editing by someone other than the writer, and usability testing.
