Description:
|
The continued dominance of technology in the global economy has increased the demand for technical writers-professionals with specialized knowledge and skills that are much needed in a variety of settings-including the IT, telecommunications, banking, manufacturing, government, medical and pharmaceutical industries. Technical writers are key communicators and are tasked with a wide range of projects that include instruction books, user guides, white papers, online documentation and technical graphics, support manuals, corporate communications, and industry analyses. Their role is critical and the opportunities are wide-particularly because technical writers can be employed successfully as consultants or full-time, integrated contributors to a company structure.
