STC/SM
2009-2010 Chapter Program Season |
The
STC/SM Programs Committee is sponsoring the STC/SM 2009-2010 Program
Season, which will feature six STC/SM Program Meetings hosted by
the STC/SM Chapter at locations across Mid-Michigan and Metro Detroit.
With our season starting off with the first program meeting of the
year in October 2009, we are still in the process of finalizing
our remaining program schedule, running through Spring and Early
Summer in 2010. We are excited to hear from a variety of speakers,
including topics and learning opportunities relevant to the professional
development of professional technical communicators. STC/SM programs
feature networking opportunities, formal presentations, and discussions
of subjects ranging from software and documentation development
to professional job searching and networking.
Thank
you to all the speakers, companies providing host venues, STC/SM
volunteer staff, STC/SM Members, students, and other attendees.
This participation and demonstration of commitment to professional
development and the advancement of technical communication makes
the program season possible, enjoyable, and rewarding. |
| Current
STC/SM Chapter Program Meeting |
The
Southeastern Michigan Chapter of the Society for Technical
Communication (STC/SM) will offer our May 2010 STC/SM Program
Meeting on Wednesday, May 26, 2010, hosted at Thomson Reuters,
in Dexter, MI. The presenter will give a talk
about being a writer: not how to do it, but what we do and
why—how being a writer has changed in terms of technology,
channels, and speed. However, the same basic skills apply.
The same characteristics apply: curiosity, a love of words.
In addition, the presentation will include video and sound
clips to illustrate broader points and include interactive
discussion.
This
is an excellent opportunity to learn and think about the evolving
profession of technical writing, network with your colleagues,
find out about new member services your STC/SM council has
been developing, and hear about some highlights from the STC
conference recently completed in Dallas, TX. In addition,
we will also hold a surprise door prize giveaway at the event
for attendees—win your STC/SM T-shirt!
We
look forward to the possibility of seeing you in a relaxed,
professional setting. For more information or if you have
any other questions, visit the STC/SM
