Subject:Tech Writing Course vs. Tech Writing Certificate From:"Peter Shea (USF)" <pshea2 -at- luna -dot- cas -dot- usf -dot- edu> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Sat, 23 Dec 2000 20:06:06 -0500 (EST)
A friend of mine has been advised to get a tech writing certificate from
the local university. However, his time and money is already invested in
an information design degree program which doesn't offer a tech writing
class.
Would he be at a great disadvantage if he simply takes an on-line tech
writing course via a university instead of pursuing a certificate?
