Subject:formal training for new writer From:Julie Deutz <jdeutz -at- GPS -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 19 Aug 1998 15:21:19 -0500
Hello all:
I've just been "given" a new writer who was formerly a member of the
software support team. She has a lot of software and business experience but
little in the way of formal writing training or experience.
Does anyone know of an intensive (meaning one to two-week) course that goes
through the "nuts and bolts" for an experienced professional who is new to
the world of technical writing? Location isn't an issue.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
