Our mission statement is: Designing the future of technical communication
The Society for Technical Communication (STC) is an individual membership organization dedicated to advancing the arts and sciences of technical communication. STC is the largest organization of its type in the world. Its 25,000 members include technical writers, editors, graphic designers, videographers, multimedia artists, Web and Intranet page information designers, translators, and others whose work involves making technical information available to those who need it.
Society membership
provides opportunities for ongoing learning and professional networking.
Through the efforts of a small, full-time staff and a large network of
volunteers, STC promotes the public welfare by educating its members and
industry about issues concerning technical communication.
