In today's world, professionals in all fields are recommended and encouraged to learn about technical writing. As a petroleum engineering student, I took technical writing class to enhance my writing skills. As a result, I have been familiar with many different strategies for technical communications. I learned about clarity of instructions, media presentations, marketing myself, teamwork and proposals, and blogging. I spent more than three months with a good instructor and classmates learning how to apply technical communication and writing at my future job.

At this point, I believe that I am ready and qualified to apply for Entry Technical Writer. I have learned how to work with a team to finish a project that is required a research. I gained skills on how to do a proposal and support a specific idea. Today, I can provide a clear list of instructions about a specific product or service. In addition, I can pick a topic and talk about it based on what I have learned at college, and give a clear presentation using a unique presentation software.

For all technical communicators are reading my blog, the journey in my technical writing class has come to an end. However, the end opened many doors for me for being a good technical communicator. If you are looking to improve your technical writing skills, you need to read a book called Strategies for Technical Communication in The Workplace, written by Laura J. Gurak and John M. Lannon. In addition, I recommend you to take a class at your college about technical communication in order to have more advanced assignments in technical communication.
Finally, I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
