U.S. Government Acknowledges Technical Writers As Distinct from All Other Writing Professions

U.S. Government Acknowledges Technical Writers As Distinct from All Other Writing Professions (STC.org)

According to a post on STC.org, the website for the Society for Technical Communication, the Occupational Outlook and Handbook (OOH), which is published by the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), will give technical writers their own report in the 2010-2011 edition out in December 2009. What does this mean for technical writers? This means technical writers will be recognized for the first time as having a profession that is distinct from all other writing professions.
