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.
Note: I'm not trying to reopen this debate, just casting
another light on it. _Please_ don't start that whole thread
again.
The latest issue of _Publish_ contains a column by the
publisher suggesting that graphic designers need to have
some sort of certification program, and invokes many of the
same reasons we discussed in our own debate. Interesting
that we writers aren't the only ones facing this problem.
