About STC Canada West Coast

The Society for Technical Communication (STC) is the world’s leading organization for advancing technical communication and improving the skills of its members.

STC members plan, design, create, write, and edit print documents and online content in every type of organization and every sector of the economy. We make technical information clearer and more useful to the people who need it.

The STC Canada West Coast chapter, founded in 1979, is based in Vancouver and draws members from western Canada and beyond. Chapter membership is open to any STC member from around the world.

Our members include senior writers and managers with decades of experience, professionals from other fields exploring a second career, and both students and instructors in post-secondary technical communication programs. All are welcome and all help the technical communication community thrive.
