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 used the on-line Framemaker training available at
www.vtc.com. On the plus side, it has step-by-step
audio (to go along with the video). (Cost is
$30/mnth, but you can also train on other software.)
On the down side, many things are not covered, and the
lessons on Structured Frame are, in my opinion, weak.
However, first going through the videos gave me enough
understanding that studying via Frame's help system
was alot easier.
