Each year, STC Austin conducts a survey to understand compensation and benefits in Austin. The survey is open to all technical communicators in the Austin area, whether current STC members or not. We have posted the results of the 2008 survey, which surveyed data about salaries and contract rates (in the Austin area) for the tax year 2007. There were 139 respondents.
2008 survey results About the Survey The Austin Chapter survey is conducted using these methods and guidelines: - The survey is anonymous. We ensure that there can be no data tracking by individual or by employer.
- The survey uses direct measurement analysis, like the U.S. Census. By comparison, the STC National Survey uses statistical sampling (Please note that the national survey is now in a members only section of the Web site and requires a password to download). Because they are sampling only a few samples from our area, we feel that the chapter survey provides more accurate results. Our survey typically draws from 75 to 150 responses.
- Survey results are posted publicly. They are copyright © Austin Chapter of STC and may not be used in any way for commercial purposes. If you would like to publish all or part of the results, please contact the Austin Chapter for permission.
- Survey data is the property of the STC and may not be sold or given to any private interest.
