Course Outline

Extensible Markup Language (XML) is new technology that is often surrounded by myths. This course is designed to dispel these myths and introduce the uses of this technology.

The most well known markup language, HTML, is a method for describing how the content of a document is displayed by a user agent. Conversely, XML is used to describe the content of a document. This makes it ideal for electronic data interchange (EDI) and data warehousing.

This course gives an introduction to XML and surrounding standards.

Object Training is supported by Altova and we use Altova's XML products, namely XML Spy to assist with our XML training delivery.
