Getting Involved Remember that old adage about a chain being only as strong as its weakest link? The same is true of our organization: to make STC-TC strong and vital, members need to participate. There are so many reasons, benefits, and ways in which you can participate! What's In It for Me? If you are new to technical communication, gain resume-enhancing skills such as: - Strategic planning
- Project management
- Communication plan development
- Marketing plan development
- Supervisory experience
- Budgeting and cost accounting
- Leadership
- Program coordination
- Public relations
If you have been in the field for awhile, help us and yourself by: - Blogging or writing articles for this Website
- Becoming a buddy with a new technical communicator
- Offering a skill to the community administrative council
- Learning a new skill through community involvement
Not Sure if You Want to Get Involved? Ask Yourself These Questions: - Do I like to meet new people and expand my professional network?
- Am I good at listening and implementing new ideas?
- Would I like to gain more leadership skills or work on project management skills?
- Would I like to be more visible in the STC community?
- Can I help direct and administer community activities?
- Might I be able to help coordinate monthly programs?
