STC Chicago Technical Communication Competition
Get ready for the 42nd Annual Technical Communication Competition!
An iPad app, a shower installation video, a newsletter, a reactor reference guide, a comic book--these were just some of the distinguished entries from last year's technical communication competition.
Are you proud of material you've been working on this year? Are you curious to see what other communicators think of your work? Are you just interested to see what other people in our field are doing? If so, mark your calendars! STC Chicago Chapter's 42nd annual competition begins mid-August.
Our knowledgeable members, judges, and entrants made last year's competition particularly successful. So we hope you'll consider entering your work and judging for this year's competition. Rules, dates, and forms will be posted on the website during the first week of August. |
