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.
I have a Bachelor of Science in Communication from RPI. RPI also has a
major in Electronic Media Arts and Communication, which might be of
interest to him. Of course, RPI now costs an arm, leg, and a good
chunk of torso to attend...
