The next Tech Comm Café in Victoria is on Wednesday, June 12th, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
We’re going to talk about what to talk about next.
This meeting is your chance to share what you’d like discussed at future Victoria Tech Comm Cafés. Come prepared to suggest a topic or let us know if you’re willing to share your expertise in a subject area. Everyone is welcome, but only if you RSVP. If you plan to attend, please RSVP on meetup.com.
Location
Zambri’s, 820 Yates St, Victoria, BC V8W 1L8
Agenda
Introductions: Take 60 seconds to introduce yourself, your background, current activities. A good chance to try out that new elevator speech.
Announcements: If you know of an event or a job opening, or you’re looking for work, share it with the group.
Discussion: What should we talk about? Share a topic you’d like discussed at a future Victoria Tech Comm Café. Also, let us know if you’re willing to share some of your expertise in a subject area.
Good Questions: Ask a nagging question and get a simple answer without judgement. A great opportunity for new writers to gain understanding.
Wrap-up: Decide on a topic, date, and location for the next meeting.
The Tech Comm Café provides networking opportunities, job leads, answers to work-related dilemmas, and a burst of professional energy to keep you motivated. We welcome anyone who’s interested in technical communication — contractor, in-house, student, long-time tech writer, STC member, non-member, career-changer, or recruiter. We hope to see you there!
