Adam Rees
Department of Human Services
Fostering an authoring community in a large government
Presentation from Intranets2015
About my talk
When Centrelink, Medicare and Child Support Agencies combined as the Department of Human Services (DHS), it was quickly evident that a centralized online publishing team was not going to cut the mustard. This session will share the frameworks, methods and resources used to build and support a distributed authoring environment, whilst still delivering data integrity, corporate style and online quality.
Through sharing his team’s experience, Adam will provide insight to the DHS online world, including aspects of:
- process rigor (education and certification)
- engagement and peer support (Yammer)
- requirements and guidelines (PublishingToolbox)
- best practice harvesting(templates)
