This hour-long workshop aims to provide students with an understanding of how a modern Component Content Management System (CCMS) is used. Keith will not only show the basics of how a technical writer would use the system by working and publishing DITA XML-based content, but also look at some of the administrative functions of the system, such as determining the roles and groups for users accessing the CCMS, and how a manager could use the system to come up with production-related metrics. The workshop has the following segments:

  • What is a Component Content Management System (CCMS)?
  • What is the typical technical infrastructure for a cloud-based CCMS?
  • How do technical writers work with and author content within a CCMS?
  • What are roles and groups within a CCMS?
  • How does a manager come up with production metrics within a CCMS?

This workshop is offered by the SIGDOC Structured Authoring Committee. Only current ACM or SIGDOC members can register for the workshop. If you are not a current member, please join at https://sigdoc.acm.org/join/types-of-membership/
