Special Interest Groups

General Information

STC's Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are composed of STC members with common experiences and interests who share their skills and knowledge with each other and with other STC members. Some of these interests are based on the type of work members do. In other cases, the interests pertain to the nature of members' employment situation. Each SIG fosters an environment that:

  • Offers its members a basic understanding of the special interest area and its effect on their role as technical communicators.
  • Encourages member-to-member dialogue as well as dialogue with other professional organizations in order to broaden the range of members' technical knowledge.
  • Offers its members a platform from which to demonstrate and share information, especially with a view to educating novices.
  • Keeps members abreast of new developments in the special interest area.

The SIG program is active at both the Society level and chapter level. This page contains general information about the SIGs, a SIG sign-up form PDF File for Society-level SIGs, and SIG contact information. For specific details such as meeting times and locations, please see the individual SIG Web pages.
