RE: Tech Writing Curriculum

Good morning,

Northeastern University in Boston MA has a great tech writing certificate
program with a curriculum that worked out extremely well for me and many
others. It is intense, concise, and a very "thoughtfully" put together
program.  It also helped that we had what I consider top notch teachers.

My courses included:

Editing for Science and Technology
Technical Writing 1&2
Software Writing 1&2
Graphics Communications
Programming (Java, C++, HTML, CGI, Perl, etc.)
On-line Documentation

There were several variations of the above required courses depending on
your
"writing track "preference. I also took a Web Graphics and Design course
using PhotoShop
and Dreamweaver after my certification. That additional choice proved
invaluable. In retrospect,
the only real difficulty I found was trying to decide the order of which
classes to take. I believe
 that is also key in setting up a good curriculum. Just my two cents.
