The Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) provides an extensible, XML-based framework for authoring, managing, and publishing technical information. Best practices supported by DITA provide for modular, component-based authoring and publishing, information re-use, separation of content and presentation, and multi-channel publishing.

You’ll learn the motivation and design of the DITA learning and training specialization, the current tools that support the DITA learning and training specialization, as well as information about adoption strategies.
