Welcome to the  English 120

Technical Writing


Spokane Community College is dedicated to its technical writers.  Right now we are completing the process of creating a Technical Writing Certificate for those students who complete a stringent curriculum of technical writing tasks:  from the memo to the manual and everything in between.  We believe students who earn this certificate will compete in the work force more effectively than those who do not do regimented coursework. If you have further questions, please contact me, Dr. Jan Strever, jstrever@scc.spokane.edu, for more information.
