Build your skills in a tight job market with STC training

[Sheila Loring]

The STC Carolina Chapter is hosting two special workshops presented by 
Manuel Gordon, of Gordon and Gordon, Montreal, Canada. We still have 
a few places available for both of these workshops.

1. CRACKING THE C CODE -- A guide for non-programmers
Documenting APIs and SDKs is one of the best-paying gigs in our industry. 
Learn how to decode C header files and create useful reference documentation.
Friday, November 2, 2001 (9:00 - 4:00)
Cost: $195 (includes lunch, refreshments, and 145-page workbook)

2. GOOD ENOUGH DOCUMENTATION -- Technical writing in the real world
Having to produce more and more with less and less? Don't have enough time to do it "right"?
This workshop will arm you with a real-world, minimalist approach to creating documentation
that's "good enough" for today's "good enough" software.
Saturday, November 3, 2001 (9:00 - 4:00)
Cost: $125 (includes lunch, refreshments, and 130-page workbook)
