Content Modeling: How to Make the Most of Your Content Management System
Full Day Seminar, Saturday, October 29, 2005, 9:00am-5:00pm (separate fee)

Once a content management system has been bought by an organization, many IAs are in the unenviable position of trying to fit existing content into it; without a process or method on how to actually do it.
This workshop will take participants through the process of modelling content (both existing and new) to make the most of the features of the content management system. Margaret Hanley has successfully created content models that allow the content to be re-used, shared and published across platforms. She will take you through the process; share learnings and teach you via hands-on exercises to identify content genres, objects and collections; and how to create and manage them. This is an intensive hands-on course designed to provide an editor, IA or content producer with methods and insight on how to model content for content management systems; using exercises brainstorms and discussion.
