Hello,
I'm as new as you can get in this field (I'm starting a TW
certificate program this fall, but I do have 17 years under my belt as
a technician in the telecom field). I'd like to know if anyone could
recommend 2-3 software apps that I should focus on learning before I
applying for work in this field? I've looked through the archives and
seen quite a few mentioned (RoboHelp, FrameMaker, DocToHelp) but I'd
like to know which would be most beneficial to learn starting out.
