What's New This Year?

The WDCB began holding a Technical Communication Competition in 1962 and continued to sponsor one through 2018. Beginning in 2019, the WDCB will not be sponsoring our own Technical Communication Competition. WDCB joined forces with the STC Alliance Competition. This endeavor entails a collaboration with the STC chapters in Atlanta, New England, New York, Philadelphia, Rochester, and South-Central Texas.
