We'd like to invite you and your colleagues to attend our workshop on Building and Exploiting Taxonomies, which is being held in Manchester on 22 October. Full details can be viewed here: http://www.i-b-e.co.uk/Building-Taxonomies
Organisations are finally waking up to the fact that in order to find, share, publish and re-use their content they need to use semantic tools such as taxonomies. In this course, you will learn about the different kinds of semantic structures that come under the taxonomy umbrella (thesauri, vocabularies, facets, navigational taxonomies, ontologies, etc) and the contexts in which each can be used most effectively. The following will be examined in detail:
* What do we mean by taxonomy?
* How does taxonomy benefit the organisation?
* Taxonomy building: a practical session
* Facet analysis
* The stages of taxonomy development
* Building a taxonomy model
* Taxonomy tools
The workshop will be facilitated by Judi Vernau, who has many years’ experience in developing taxonomies for public, private and third sector clients. She will use examples from web sites, publications, and document and records management to illustrate aspects of good and bad practice.
Due to the interactive nature of the workshop, attendance is strictly limited to 20 delegates and places are going fast. Cost to attend is £295 + VAT per delegate. To register, please click on the link below or give me a call on 0161 374 0372: http://www.i-b-e.co.uk/node/96
