This advanced information architecture seminar combines lecture, demonstration and exercises, discussion, and handouts to address a topic that bewilders every large organization: designing unified information architectures for large enterprises. You'll learn to:
* Develop main pages and other upper-level "portal" components that convey a single cohesive organization, 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 organizational "silos".
* Better implement an enterprise-wide information architecture through appropriate research and design methods and improved governance.

Seminar Schedule and Outline

Registration and continental breakfast begin at 8am. The seminar starts at 9am and finishes at 5pm, followed by an extremely happy hour. During the day, we'll cover these topics:
* Overview of enterprise information architecture (EIA)
* EIA from the top-down: taxonomies, guides, and other techniques for unifying departmental content
* EIA from the bottom-up: content models and metadata to enable contextual navigation from page to page
* EIA and search: indexing cross-departmental content, presenting results consistently
* EIA and the organization: models for rolling out an enterprise information architecture, staffing it, and paying for and managing it in a distributed corporate environment

What's Included

* Handouts including presentation slides and references to related readings, software products, and other useful resources.
* A variety of opportunities to network with attendees, including a post-seminar happy hour with Lou Rosenfeld, Steve Krug, and other members of the local information architecture and usability communities. In these new fields, knowing your peers is invaluable.</full-description>
