Oracle Universal Content Management 11g: Manage Web Content I

This course lays the foundation for Web Content Management by furnishing the participants with the designer skills necessary to contribute to, design, and build Web sites using Site Studio, Site Studio for External Applications, Site Studio Publisher, and Dynamic Converter.

Participants will learn to navigate a Site Studio Web site as an end-user, editing and contributing both native content and data files managed by Oracle Content Server. They will also participate in a workflow as an end-user, reviewing Web site content. And eventually they build a fully-fledged Web site by creating page templates, adding contribution regions and native content to layout pages and creating dynamic lists. They validate content submitted through Site Studio Contributor and use Dynamic Converter to format and view native content. In addition, participants will use Oracle JDeveloper to create Web sites using Site Studio for External Applications. Finally, they will learn how to publish static Web sites.

This offering is based on UCM 11g PatchSet 2 (11.1.1.3.0)
