- Describe your career goals and how you feel STC will help you achieve them (500-1000 words).
- Describe any experience in technical communication or related areas (project planning, project analysis, content development, organizational design, written communication, visual communication, reviewing and editing, content management, and production and delivery). You may include volunteer activities and class projects, as well as work experience. Résumés and samples are not accepted (250-500 words).
- Describe a trend in technical communication that excites you and explain why (250-500 words).
Applicants should not send samples of work, as samples will not be reviewed by the committee.
