RE: Technical Writing Certificate






None of the technical writing certificates that I know about are worth
the investment. To evaluate a certificate, investigate how widely it is
used by those in the field, and by those hiring in the field.

IMHO, the better approach is a technical writing degree, even an
associate's degree has more value than a testing certificate. The
problem with a tech writing degree is finding an accredited educational
institution with a well-developed curriculum. I have been associated
with the tech trade over 30 years and I cannot think of any...Kelly.

Hello Framers:

Would someone please recommend a couple of online certificate programs
that I can take to become a technical writer?

What is the best online writing course available?? 

Thanks from a Newbie!
