Local Working Group

In October 2011 a small local working group (comprising ASTC (NSW), ASTC (Vic) and TechCommNZ representatives) was set up.

The primary purpose of the local working group is to:

1. Investigate what training options are available for people wishing to start a career in the technical communication field in Australia and New Zealand.

2. Investigate what training options are available for technical communication professionals to develop and maintain their skills.

3. Establish whether providing a new ASTC or TechCommNZ enhanced membership grade, that recognises experience and qualifications, would be useful to members or employers of those members.
