The JoAnn Hackos Workshop Series announces the Structured Authoring for DITA workshop in San Jose, CA, April 9-10, 2013, taught by Frank Miller.

Structured authoring addresses the decisions that writers, editors, and project managers need to make. The emphasis is on your own materials—with much hands-on participation. From information types through content units, you discuss with teammates and other attendees what the best solutions might be. You tackle granularity and semantic markup, as well as the implications of XML.

In the workshop, you will learn how to understand the importance of having a comprehensive Information Model with an integrated user model to meet customer needs. Apply the user model to make well-targeted decisions about information types and content units, writing the content units, and writing variations.
