DITA Learning and Training Samples Work Group

The OASIS DITA Learning and Training Subcommittee is setting up a work 
group to develop a real-world training sample. The real-world training sample 
will use the new Learning and Training specialization included with the upcoming 
DITA 1.2 specification.

 

The sample will perform a number of important functions in the early 
adoption of DITA for Learning and Training amongst training organizations and 
tools vendors:

 

1. As a potential reference for technical integrators to test and 
evaluate the Learning and Training specialization for various commercial and 
open source implementations as available

 

2. As a set of sample DITA content templates for training organizations 
to use in the development of their own learning and training 
materials

 

3. As an example of best practices using design features of the Learning 
and Training specialization

 

4. As an example of single source training content for both 
instructor-led and online-based training

 

5. As the basis for a separate, comprehensive, technical test suite to 
verify design features and functionality of the DITA Learning and Training 
specialization

 

The work group kick-off meeting will be Thursday, April 16th. Please see 
the OASIS DITA Learning and Training calendar for more information.
