YEDA's Flagship Course: Technical Communications

Since its inception in the early '90's, YEDA's Technical Communication course has trained several generations of leading technical writers and marcom specialists. The course is based on the idea that effective training can only be acquired through a combination of lecture, student exercises, and extensive instructor feedback on those exercises. This system engages student and instructor in a dialogue that leads to rapid and effective training - the kind of training that makes the graduate an asset to any technical communication team right from the start.

Technical Communications is a broad area - it includes much more than just Technical Writing. Technical Communications also includes

Marketing Communications - the creation of marketing materials that are used to help market and sell products and services.

Desktop Publishing and document management - both requiring expertise with software tools and management practices.

The Technical Communications course prepares students for a career in all of the above areas. This opens up far greater opportunities than a single course in just one area - especially in today's economy where the value of employees is often measured in how quickly they can adapt to new tasks and responsibilities.
