[Podcast] Become a technical writer: conversation with Bobby Kennedy about the technical writing courses he offers
Listen here:
Bobby Kennedy started offering technical writing courses after acting as a mentor to a student trying to find a career path in tech comm. Through this experience, he realized he has a lot of valuable information about technical writing profession, which he gained through 20+ years in the field. He can help guide students to learn both basic and advanced technical writing skills, build up a portfolio, prepare for technical writing interviews, and ultimately land a technical writing job in the field. He’s even working on more specialized courses like UX writing as well.

About Tom Johnson
I'm an API technical writer based in the Seattle area. On this blog, I write about topics related to technical writing and communication — such as software documentation, API documentation, AI, information architecture, content strategy, writing processes, agent skills, tech comm careers, and more. Check out my AI courses for more on the latest in AI and tech comm. If you're looking for info about documenting APIs, see my API documentation course.
If you're a technical writer and want to keep on top of the latest trends in tech comm, be sure to subscribe to email updates below. You can also learn more about me or contact me.
Finally, I want to note a couple of things. I usually write the first drafts of my posts myself and then use AI to improve accuracy, clarity, and detail in places, so my writing is a mix of human and AI. (Hopefully that's not too off-putting.) Also, the opinions I express on my blog are my own perspectives, not those of my employer.
