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.
Thanks for all of your responses to my request for information about
ISO9001. I contacted the American Society of Quality Control and received
some interesting information.
Note, there is a standard - 10013 (1995) - specifically for preparation of
a manual.
I am curious, has anybody on the list gotten ISO certified? Would there be
any direct benefit for a writer to get certified? (I know large companies
do this, but could a contract writer's reception be better if certified?)
