I am currently in an IT support role, and due to finish my Bachelors degree in Computer Information Systems this coming June.
I have had almost 4 years total IT experience, 3 of which were in the Air Force. I’ve done a variety of IT related jobs; my most favorite being training and technical documentation. I served in that capacity for a year and a half, loved it, and was good at it as well.
My question is, how would I make the transition from IT jack-of-most-trades with a Bachelors degree to a Technical writer/software documentation and trainer of the manuals I produce.
Go after a Masters degree in technical communication?
What sort of job should I look for to boost me in the right direction?
Are there any certifications available for IT trainers or technical writers?
Any advice would be much appreciated, thank you!
