Technical Communication

Tweet

I have recently graduated form this post-graduate program from York University, Toronto, Canada. I know that this field is fairly fresh, and there isn't a lot of publicity for it out there. It is not as well-known as some other jobs, but I already have learned that the opportunity in this one is enormous. I would be interested in the sectors of this field that would enable me to work form home. Are there any recommendations from the more experienced writers here? Does anybody work as a Technical Writer/Communicator? Just to give some people an idea - Technical Communication is the field, in which people are working on manuals/user guides, technical instructions form anything of a mechanical, software or other technical nature. The main employers in this field are MDG, IBM, car manufacturers, appliances manufacturers.
