The following courses will be presented by Mr Holman:

• CS140 Practical Transformation using XSLT and XPATH    5 Days, May 14 -18 2012
  
• CS141 Practical Formatting with XSL-FO    3 Days, May 21 -23 2012
  
• CS142 Universal Business Language Deployment    1 Day, 24 May 2012
  
• CS143 Universal Code Lists    1 Day, 25 May 2012
  

The CS140 and CS141 are of particular interest to anyone working with, processing, or developing XML applications that need to transform documents from one XML format to another. XSL-FO, presented in the CS141, offers to generate printed output in PDF and other paged output formats. The two courses combined learn how to transform any XML document into XSL-FO and then to a paged output format. These courses are technical in nature, aimed at developers.

The CS142 and CS143 courses present the Universal Business Language. UBL is the product of an international effort to define a library of standard electronic XML business documents for purchase orders and invoices. The UBL format has been selected by many European governments for e-invoicing and e-government interaction. Code Lists are used in UBL for representation of controlled vocabularies or coded value enumerations in UBL exchanges. These two courses are more conceptual, aimed at both Information Architects and Developers of e-commerce systems.

Courses will be held at de Meern, near Utrecht, the Netherlands. Registration is open now. The number of seats is limited to 12 per session. Full information these courses on the OSA website.
