Re: Where did you get your feet wet

To all,

Where does one get a 'technical  writing certificate'?

Are they only from 'Institutes of Higher  Learning'?

If there are '3' places that issue certificates, how does a  person determine 
which one?

In all of my 'tech writing' experience, I do  not believe that I have ever 
met anyone with a 'tech writing  certificate'.

Nor have I ever been asked if I had one.  

Nor  have I ever been asked if I was a member of the STC.

Oh, boy, all this  experience, and no certificate.

Hardware, software, Contingency Planning,  Software Capability Maturity Model 
(SW-CMM), process and procedures,  Instructional development (course 
development and teaching), configuration  management.

Maybe too much gray hair?  (Chuckle, chuckle)
