Welcome!

Welcome to the Oklahoma Chapter of the Society for Technical Communication (STC). Our members include technical writers, editors, graphic designers, Web specialists, and many more. A number of our members are self-employed and work as freelancers or consultants.

What do all these members have in common? They know the value of professional development and networking opportunities that STC has to offer. Want more information about STC and about membership benefits?

The Oklahoma Chapter holds meetings and workshops in Tulsa, Oklahoma City, and Stillwater--meetings and workshops that are open to the public. Want more information on the Oklahoma Chapter of STC and the student chapter at Oklahoma State University? 

From our chapter president:
My vision is for a strong and vibrant STC chapter that provides value for its members and benefits for the community at large. STC at the national level has made a lot of very positive changes. I am excited to be a part of these changes and to have the opportunity to help push those to the local level.
                                                           J. Travis Rose, STC Oklahoma Chapter President
