Abstract Details

2010, Master of Technical and Scientific Communication, Miami University, English.
From March 23, 2009 to July 3, 2009, I completed a technical writing internship in instructional design at Accenture Learning’s Chicago Content Development Center. This report describes my internship experience in four chapters. In Chapter 1: Introduction to Accenture Learning, I provide background information on Accenture Learning and explain my roles and responsibilities during the internship period. Chapter 2: Internship Overview describes my main internship projects, including the purpose, audience, deliverables, key tasks, and outcomes. In Chapter 3: Developing the Chart of Accounts eBriefing Course, I describe the complete process I followed to develop a web-based training course. In Chapter 4: Reflections on Instructional Design and Technical Communication, I introduce Robert Gagné’s Nine Events of Instruction and explain how I applied this theory to my internship projects. Finally, I reflect on the technical communication guidelines that prepared me for a career in training development.
