I was wondering if anyone had heard any news lately on the topic of
certifying Technical Comminicators. One reason I am asking is because
I am curious. The second reason is to start a new topic of discussion,
after all the recent banter about spaces, buttons and note-taking. :-)

Kim,
You can get certified through STC (Society of Technical Communicators).
I am sure many list readers are members.
While we are on the topic, my membership will arrive soon and I was
wondering what qualifications you must meet to be certified. Does
anyone know?
Thanks,
