# Want To start a Technical Writing Career but don't know where to begin?

I've Finished Reading the Technical Writing One Pre-class material.

I thank Google for this FREE and Comprehensive material.

The following are the basic lessons I looked at.

- Use terms consistently.

- Avoid ambiguous pronouns.

- Prefer active voice to passive voice.

- Pick specific verbs over vague ones.

- Focus each sentence on a single idea.

- Convert some long sentences to lists.

- Eliminate unneeded words.

- Use a numbered list when ordering is important and a bulleted list when ordering is irrelevant.

- Keep list items parallel.

- Start numbered list items with imperative words.

- Introduce lists and tables appropriately.

- Create great opening sentences that establish a paragraph's central point.

- Focus each paragraph on a single topic.

- Determine what your audience needs to learn.

- Fit documentation to your audience.

- Establish your document's key points at the start of the document.

Before you go.
