Advanced Technical Writing is the study of how to explain information clearly in professional settings. It focuses on writing that helps people do something, understand a process, or make a decision, such as emails, memos, instructions, reports, proposals, resumes, and cover letters. The course also covers how to write for different audiences and how to handle ethical and legal issues in communication.
Advanced Technical Writing is a self-paced online course. You work through the video lessons on your own schedule, complete the quizzes and assignments, and finish with a final exam, which is weighted 50% of your grade alongside 20% for quizzes and 30% for assignments. When you complete the course, the transcript credit is what UMT recognizes as COMM 205 – Technical Writing.
The course trains you to write emails, memos, instructions, reports, and proposals that readers can act on without follow-up questions, and to tailor them to different audiences. At UMT, the completed credit is recognized as COMM 205 – Technical Writing, so these skills carry into degree work in programs such as the Associate of Business Administration and the Bachelor of Business Administration. How the credit counts within a specific program depends on that program's requirements, so confirm the placement with an advisor before you enroll.
After you finish the course, send your transcript to UMT. UMT's registrar applies the credit as COMM 205 – Technical Writing, a named course equivalency that matches a specific course code in the UMT catalog and is the strongest form of transfer recognition the university gives. That means the credit is recognized against an identified catalog course rather than as unspecified credit, which helps when you map your degree plan. Transfer credit at UMT is capped at 90 credits (75%), so this course counts toward that ceiling along with any other transfer work.
This course suits working adults and students finishing a UMT business degree who want a self-paced route to a recognized equivalent, COMM 205 – Technical Writing, at a cost of $390 per credit. Because UMT accepts up to 90 credits (75%) in transfer, anyone planning a large share of transfer work should count this course toward that limit before enrolling. It is not a good fit for students who need live instruction, scheduled class meetings, or a course focused on subjects other than professional writing.
UMT's Office of Academic Affairs evaluates transfer credit and prior learning against UMT course outcomes, with review by faculty or subject-matter experts. The figures below are from UMT's 2026-27 University Catalog.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined by UMT's Office of Academic Affairs.
