Emerging Professionals

Emerging Professionals is a new column that students of technical communications and professionals transitioning into the field won’t want to miss. This column will inform you of what’s happening in the Rocky Mountain chapter of the Society for Technical Communication, explain how to network and get involved in the local chapter, and highlight the professional benefits of being part of this organization.

If you’re a student, you will want to check out the Rocky Mountain Chapter’s college scholarships for 2007-2008 (http://stcrmc.org/chapter/scholarships/scholar.htm). These scholarships provide a wonderful way for working students who do not qualify for standard financial aid to get some support while pursuing coursework in Technical Communications. Or looking for a job in the field? Then, you will definitely want to check out the local job line (http://stcrmc.org/jobs_freelance/jobline.htm). It is by far the best resource available to technical communication professionals in the Denver metropolitan area, regardless of your level of experience.

Stay tuned for our first article in the February/March issue of Technicalities.
