November 2006. EducationWorld Technical Writing Teacher
The 40 percent plus year-on-year growth of India’s leading IT and ITES companies has sparked a massive demand for trained technical writers. This new genre of writers are employed by software and electronic manufacturing firms to explain hi-tech products/ processes in simple language to corporate customers. But given contemporary India’s unprecedented shortage of skilled professionals and dearth of quality education institutions, technical writing training colleges are springing up across the country. The Writers Block (TWB), a Bangalore-based technical writing training institute is all set for its first anniversary with a celebratory get-together of its 30 staff, 200 students and committed recruiters on November 4.
