The MadCap Software Scholar Program Welcomes
Seneca College Partners with MadCap Software to Help Students Gain a Competitive Edge via Real-World Expertise and Advanced Technical Writing Tools
San Diego, CA, USA and Toronto, Ontario, Canada – May 20, 2019 – Seneca College is partnering with MadCap Software to help students gain the modern skills with today’s technical writing tools needed to enter a competitive workforce and excel. The new partnership, part of the MadCap Scholar Program, will enable the college’s technical communication students to build their expertise through real-world experience using MadCap Flare, the most advanced technical authoring and publishing solution on the market.
The Seneca Technical Communication Program is a one-year graduate certificate program that prepares students for a career in this professional field. To support the program, Seneca College is integrating MadCap Flare into its curriculum, providing students with the opportunity to engage in projects that mimic various technical environments and situations seen in business. Using Flare, students will gain hands-on experience in writing, managing, and publishing technical documents that showcase their skillsets and qualifications.
We were looking for an opportunity to incorporate this software into our program, as it is a widely-used tool in the industry for topic-based authoring, single-sourcing, and multi-channel publishing. We are fortunate to integrate MadCap Flare into the curriculum so that students can acquire the concepts, knowledge, and skills required by many employers in today’s competitive technical market.
