TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
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.
We are in in a society that is fixated on credentialism. When it comes time
to choose between a program of lesser prestige or one of higher, the higher
the better. In many cases one's educational level places the individual in
consideration more so than experience. If you doubt that, notice what has
happened to the most experienced individuals in the work force in the last
decade.
All other things being equal, young people with the best educational
qualifications get the best jobs. In the brave new world of HR, it is widely
assumed that a prestigious education is somehow a substitute for experience.
In the everyday real world of work it does not turn out that way. That being
the case, put yourself at the head of the line.
