Technical Communication
Overview
In nearly every sector of our economy, including industry, technology, medicine, government, education, marketing, and the professions, there are technical communicators helping written and electronic materials make sense. Welcome to your future!
Duke Continuing Studies offers an excellent curriculum developed with experts in the field of technical communication, most of whom also teach the courses with equal care. Members and leaders in the Society for Technical Communication (STC) have been actively involved. This working relationship furthers the goals of both of our organizations, in outreach and in educational mission.
Why a Certificate?
A noncredit professional certificate from Duke Continuing Studies demonstrates your commitment to learning and professional development in a market in which change is the norm. In these courses, you'll learn the rigors and the ropes of a new career area, or hone your edge in your current technical communication position.
As a certificate student, you may apply for internships at businesses in the Triangle so that you can add professional experience to your classwork portfolio.
The certificate program offers convenient evening and weekend hours for working people; moderate cost; and best of all, a community of learners.
