Full-Day Workshop Presented by Susan Hanley: Wednesday, December 6th, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm (Room S103bc)

"WS 405 - Information Architecture: The Myths, The Methods, and The Musts for an Awesome Intranet"

If your users can’t find what they need on your intranet, your information architecture (IA) probably needs some work! In this workshop, you will learn tips and best practices to improve “findability” and information organization and the basic concepts of information architecture.

We will cover four critical aspects of a great IA: navigation/site architecture, best practices for organizing information on pages (page layout and content architecture), how to use content types and metadata to improve both browsing and searching, and how to think about search experiences as part of your IA. You’ll also learn the best places to focus your IA energy – so that you can build an intranet that is an essential part of your digital workplace.
