Description: This full-day workshop begins with an overview of DITA-the intention behind
it and how it promotes a structured, single-source approach to authoring.
Next, you’ll learn about the concept, reference, task and topic information
types, including the purposes and components (elements) of each.
Instructional segments are followed by an opportunity for you to put the
principles you just learned to use, creating a set of DITA topics from
scratch. Then, you learn about DITA maps and, time permitting, create some
of your own, building different deliverables for different audiences. If
time does not permit, the instructor provides a demonstration of several
approaches to organizing a ditamap and the resulting output.
