About Webster Techwriters
We know good from sub-standard technical writing. For over 25 years, we have placed the best technical writers at companies in Silicon Valley and nationwide. This on-site class shows engineers, scientists, and other non-English majors how to produce clear, attractive procedures, reports, and proposals.
Our History Teaching Technical Writing
At our nationally accredited tech writing schools in San Francisco and Santa Clara, we graduated 385 new technical writers. Most still work in the field, some as tech pubs managers. This on-site class utilizes the curriculum at the Webster Institute, developed from 1996 through 2002.
Customized for Your Writers
In preparation for your class, we receive writing samples from each student, assess each document and make recommendations. We teach your writers based on our analyses of their work.
