Enterprise IA Seminar (Sydney)
About the event:
Developing a unified web site or intranet for a large, decentralised organisation is the Holy Grail for many of today's Internet professionals. This daylong seminar is for managers and web professionals who desperately want to tie together content in a rational, user-centered way, regardless of content ownership issues, cultural hurdles, and turf battles.
Key benefits to attend:
This advanced information architecture seminar combines lecture, demonstration, practical exercises, discussion, and handouts to address a topic that bewilders every large organisation: Designing unified information architectures for large enterprises. By attending this unique seminar, you will learn how to:
* Develop main pages and other upper-level "portal" components that convey a single cohesive organisation, not a collection of warring business units
* Use metadata and contextual navigation to help users move from one content rich page to another, regardless of which business unit manages that content.
* Design search interfaces for improved access to content stored in organisational "silos"
* Manage implementation, governance, strategy, and maintenance of an enterprise-wide information architecture
