JPDocu School of Technical Writing
Do you want to learn how to write structured documentation using DITA XML? If yes, I can help!
My name is Jordan Stanchev. I have built my career in the field of technical communications over the last 20 years.
Starting off as a Java developer, I have then become a senior technical writer and had built a career as a DITA information architect.
I have written thousands of pages of software documentation guides for administrators and for developers. The software products I have worked on are in the field of security, messaging services, and development infrastructure (such as GitHub and SAP NWDI).
Today, I am a part of the team that leads the development of DITA XML–based infrastructure projects. The technical writers’ community we serve is more than 1000 authors. I also chair the experts’ group of our nearly 300 people strong group of DITA information architects in a Fortune 100 company – SAP SE. I constantly have to write software development specifications and project documentation, in addition to the user guide .
What can I say, I have vast experience to share in structured writing and information architecture using DITA XML. And this is what I focus on in this course.

Very good and comprehensible introduction to the world of DITA and XML Author software. I would highly recommend this course for everyone who wish to quickly understand the subject and start using it…
Michael Norton –
Very good course. Instructor very articulate. Good starting point.
Donna Carr –
The content was good, but it would have been nice to hear more about elements and tags. It was a big confusing the way some segments would end…almost as if it stopped in the middle. The bonus section was a repeat of the beginning, but the bonus section was better. The format changed in the middle which was also a bit odd.
Sofie Vandeputte –
I would like to have seen an explanation of the different files that are created. I found it hard to understand which files are created at which steps. THis is important if you leave the training and re enter at a later point. On the exercise with reusing table rows, I think there is an error in the slide. There are two

Yes, good for someone like me who is new to technical writing. I am getting to learn things right from scratch.
Ayananta Chowdhury –
Too dull in terms of speaking. Uses a flat tone.
Pavan –
Tutor skips the steps. like after step 1,2,3…suddenly 6. Eg: how to create profiling is covered, but how to add the option to use the profiles in transformation is not shown.

Concepts are explained clearly. Few screens are blurred. Otherwise, It is good.
Elizabeth Picciotto –
Interactive, hands on examples are very good.
Cinny Elizabeth Thomas –
For a high level overview of what DITA and the related topics this course is good, but need more detailing for certain topics. Need to improve the quality of video

Jordan delivers his lessons with clarity and great demonstrations. He even takes the time to coach personally on problems that I have faced. This class is definitely worth attending.

I am already having experience in XML authoring and this course has been an excellent refresher, covering all the topics of DITA. Additionaly I came to know about some advanced topics as well. Also Jordan(instructor) has been promptly offering support on E mails as well. There have been couple of reviews about audio issues and I don’t agree with that, the quality is good as well(you can turn on captions if you have any issue). Over all it has been a good learning experience.
