Pamela Kostur's presentation Contact Tactics: Putting Your Strategy Into Action was very well-received at the Society for Technical Communication's Summit in Chicago in late May.

Learn how to treat content
as a business asset
Right on the heels of the Summit, Pamela taught a new two-day course at the University of Toronto's iSchool. Treating Content as a Business Asset examines the crucial role that content plays in any organization. Businesses create vast amounts of content to support their products, services, and business processes. Content is the face that businesses present to their markets and to all those they do business with, internally and externally.
This course challenges students to rethink their organizations' content assets and processes. Content development costs money. Good content grows businesses and attracts users. Bad content frustrates users and leads to lost revenue and reputational damage. Learn how to create a content strategy that informs all phases of the content life cycle and emphasizes content as a business asset. Visit the iSchool for more information and to register for upcoming sessions.
