Adapting and Thriving
in a Changing
TechComm World

with Neil Perlin on Feb. 18 in Burlington, MA

Can the TechComm community rise to overcome new challenges?

Technical communication has changed tremendously in the last few years, and we hear gloomy predictions that the field is dying.

Is it dying? or just changing?
And if it is changing, what is it changing into? How do we adapt and thrive in this emerging world?

Join us on February 18 as we explore these topics in a lively discussion led by Neil Perlin. We'll hear from TechComm professionals, both experienced and new, to get their perspectives on how our field is transforming into...what?
