Training "Effective and efficient e-publishing services"

Author: Dr. Frank Hoffmann, HOFFMANN+LIEBENBERG, 2002/06/15

Behind ZMS stands a conceptional approach for an efficient and low cost production of websites or web documents. You get to know this approach in detail in the ZMS course.

On-site training for 1 - 2 participants:
1,550 EUR/day plus GST/VAT and travel costs. The course fee includes four copies of the ZMS textbook offering a comprehensive description of the concept. Depending on the focus of one of the both primary target groups (multiplicator or organisation) the corresponding course topics of the general catalogue are stressed. Your contact person is Dr. F. Hoffmann.
