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.
hhmmm. May vary from state to state. Never heard of a problem here in
Sunny California.
For example, most members of the technical staff in our Software
Engineering group actually have degrees in "computer science" courses of
study, rather degrees from programs entitled (or certfied as ) ,
"engineering". (The HARDWARE engineers tend to have educational
backgrounds in electrical engineering.)
I'll have to look into that, though. It's an interesting question...
