The Technical Communications Companion: A Reference Guide & Workbook was designed as a supplement to collegiate level Technical Communications courses. It demonstrates contemporary examples and visual references of written, electronic, and presentation documents common to the job hunt and work place settings.
This text does not contain chapters detailing a contextual approach to understanding Technical Communications; rather, it offers templates and examples to be used in conjuncture with academic study.
