This webinar will cover some basic but often overlooked architectural aspects of DITA that can be leveraged during implementation that will help achieve the following:

• Reduce training costs and timelines
• Increase consistency and productivity
• Reduce stylesheet customizations
• Broaden the relevance of DITA in an organization

Specifically we will be reviewing how better content planning and mapping, DITA specialization, customized toolsets and content re-use planning can make sure a DITA implementation goes well. We will try and highlight how organizations can ensure that DITA done well provides the following benefits:

• Consistent content and structure
• Ease of reuse
• Shorter production schedules and better utilization of writers
• Semantically rich content

Upfront investment in a content strategy when implementing DITA pays big dividends later in the project!

This is a business level webinar covering concepts and approaches, technical knowledge of DITA or XML is not required.
