The JoAnn Hackos Workshop Series announces the DITA Boot Camp workshop in Cupertino, CA, August 13-17, 2012, taught by Frank Miller and Hal Trent.

DITA Boot Camp will cover the concepts needed to move to DITA successfully. The Boot Camp takes you from the DITA Basics to the skills you'll need to create a specific standard for your industry and your content. In this workshop you will get the core values of structured authoring, information modeling, minimalism, business process change, and DITA details and implementation. By structuring a task in DITA, learn the structure inherent in the core DITA specialized information types: task, concept, and reference.

The workshop is a mix of conceptual and hands-on: students are asked to understand the framework and best practices, then perform exercises to practically apply and reinforce the learnings. The Boot Camp requires that you bring a laptop computer and sample documents to complete exercises. Be prepared to learn to use an XML editor to author topics.
