Re: STC certification: what's in it for tech writers?

[Steven Jong <stevefjong -at- comcast -dot- net>]

Keith Hood asks:

> Has the STC or anyone else canvassed employers to find out if employers can see any value in STC certification?  There's no point in going through a certification process, especially a costly one, if employers don't care about it and never look at it.

Asked and answered earlier. We have spoken to employers both large and small, and they do want certification. One of our drivers, in fact, is to meet employer expectations.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
