Project roadmap

The first course, Introduction to DITA, is intended for people who have no previous knowledge of DITA.

The second course is the first in a series on DITA authoring, which includes:

• The DITA concept topic type
• The DITA task topic type
• The DITA reference and glossary topic types

These courses use hands-on practice to introduce elements and help people start authoring in DITA. The Introduction to DITA course is a prerequisite for these courses.

Here are the plans for additional courses. If you would like to contribute to one of these courses, please add your name.
