Submitted by Amy Ingraham, Tech Talk Advisory Committee
Technicians! Do you have a tip, a comment, or a thought that belongs in print? Tech Talk offers mentoring if you have never written for publication. We want to make it easier for you to share your knowledge with others in our field. In addition, you get a very nice perk of 4 CEUs per published item applicable towards your Registry credits. Call, write, or e-mail John Farrar (john.farrar@aalas.org) for additional information. |
Don't put this one off until later! Haven't you waited long enough? For More Info go to: Tech Talk Guidelines
