atw: Reminder: ASTC workshop: Introduction to AuthorIT; Sat 2 Sep 06

> Presenter, Colin Dawson. 
> 
> This is a practical one-day workshop, aimed at technical writers, that will 
> enable you to leverage your skills with other help authoring tools in the 
> structured environment of AuthorIT. No prior knowledge of AuthorIT is needed 
> but participants should have experience with a help authoring tool.
> AuthorIT software combines help authoring, content management and 
> single-sourcing in one package. Sophisticated users can create custom 
> templates, JavaScripts and Word macros, making it more open-ended than any 
> other help authoring tool.
> Colin Dawson has been teaching AuthorIT since 2001. He has developed many 
> original solutions based on AuthorIT and has spoken about some of these at 
> conferences in Australia and the US. With 25 years experience in technical 
> communication, Colin has won a number of industry awards including STC 
> international > "> Distinguished / Best in Show> ">  in Seattle, 2005.
> In this workshop, Colin will demonstrate how to create content, customise 
> templates and use version control, with exercises for participants to 
> practise these skills. 
> Session 1) Getting started - create projects and use day-to-day features, 
> including importing content from other sources. 
> Session 2) Swimming in the deep-end - a demonstration of some interesting 
> problems that have been solved through the use of AuthorIT. This will give 
> you an idea of what can be achieved through customisation.
