The Certified Professional Technical Communicator (CPTC) credential provides assurance to employers and the public that the certified practitioner possesses the knowledge, skill, and ability expected of a competent technical communicator to meet the demands of technical communication projects, today and tomorrow. It is available to experienced practitioners working in English for the North American market.
Certification demonstrates the recipient’s experience in and personal, ongoing commitment to the profession. It encompasses broad areas of practice that represent the major activities performed by technical communicators. The certified practitioner demonstrates proficiency in multiple areas.
Yes, certification for technical communicators is a reality! Learn about the certification program first-hand from commission chair and Associate Fellow Steven Jong.
