The Technical Communicators Association of New Zealand (TCANZ) is pleased to announce the TCANZ Conference 2005 is to be held in Christchurch this year at Rydges Hotel on 8 and 9 September.

If you or your staff are involved in any aspect of system or user documentation - online or via the web, this conference is for you!

Our speaker line-up is the best yet, led by Dr JoAnn Hackos as the keynote. We are introducing other new exciting speakers from Europe: Bogo Vatovec from Germany and Marie-Louise Flacke from France and returning are some of our favourites, including Patrick Hofmann, Carol Barnum, and Tony Self.

Workshops will be held around the conference itself. We have full day workshops on the Tuesday and Saturday - Structured writing for single sourcing by Dr Hackos and Change management for technical communicators by Bogo Vatovec respectively. These are real value for money. Luke Hoban from Australia presents a half-day workshop on the Tuesday - How to gather requirements for a content management system.

Full details of the Conference and Workshops are available on the TCANZ Web site (
www.tcanz.org.nz), with a detailed programme and a brochure that you can download as a PDF. We hope you will be marking the date in your calendar NOW and spreading the word on this event to as many of your colleagues as possible, including content managers, web and intranet content developers. This is a conference that is relevant to anyone involved with or thinking about communicating with users online and via the Web.

Please note that the Earlybird discount closes on 7 August but as a special offer we will extend the Earlybird registration date to 14th August for Canterbury Software Cluster members only.

If you wish to register for the conference, please email the TCANZ Treasurer, Roy McKone on mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] stating that you are a Canterbury Software Cluster member and providing your contact details for invoicing purposes.

We look forward to seeing you in Christchurch in September.
