How Does this Work?

What can you expect from this workbook:

Flexibility - take control of which exercises you do, where and when you do them. That means based on where you're at in your technical writing career, you can start at whichever section (Mindset, Writing Practice, or Interviews) you need most. You can do them at your convenience and take the book with you. 

Quality - learn from my 15+ years of experience so that you can learn how to manage various situations that come up in your technical writing career. How to answer questions during a job interview. Plus, how to read job descriptions and work with recruiters for both full-time and contract work.

Networking - with myself and other like-minded technical writers from around the world. Use the online channel to ask questions. That means you can log into the online channel whenever you have a question and at your convenience.

Save money - no additional travel, high university fees or additional expensive book fees which means

  • You work from home, the library or on the road on your own computer.
  • The intensive program cost is equivalent to
    • One 4-credit course at a community college or
    • One-half of a credit per course at a university.
    • Plus, includes your book.

Save time - go at your own pace or commit to 3-months. That means when you finish the workbook, you have 4 samples to use for job interviews and know how to answer the top 5 interview questions hiring managers ask.

Accessibility - the book is in print format allowing you to carry it to doctor appointments, coffee shop, or library to work on the exercises when you are on the go. Plus, 24/7 availability for networking with other like-minded technical writers working on advancing their career.

Intensive program only - two 90-minute Zoom calls from wherever you have internet access. That means you work on the writing exercises of your choice that day.
