For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Amram asks who should pay for an off-site contractor's travel costs to the
client's site and who should pay for time spent learning the client's
preferred software tools.
Both items are negotiable. In contract negotiations, I am willing to concede
more on the cost of learning time than I am on the cost of travel because I
like learning new software but I don't like travelling.
Regards,
Dave.
