Linked Data Fundamentals

Linked data is essential for creating a connected and agile organization, though it still seems abstract to many teams. This course makes it more tangible. You’ll become familiar with the Semantic Web standards that let information be defined once and shared everywhere, and you’ll see how linked data can be put into practice in a business similar to yours.

We don’t merely show you what’s possible; we give you the judgment to use it well, so you’ll know which vocabularies and technologies to reach for, how to apply them, and when linked data is not appropriate.

  • What you will learn

    In three workshops, backed by self-paced coursework, you move from the foundations of the Semantic Web to working with vocabularies and selecting the appropriate technologies, while also exploring real-world applications of linked data and the structuring of classification systems into ontologies.

  • Who this course is for

    This course is built for information architects and linked data enthusiasts who want to move from interest to real capability, and for anyone who wants to make their organization more agile with connected data.

  • What background you need

    You’ll get the most from this course if you’re already involved in information modeling or architecture and have a working understanding of concepts such as data distribution and web technology. No deeper technical background is required.

  • How it works

    You can take the course online, at your own offices, or at an off-site location. It runs with small groups of three to eight people, leaving room for real discussion and hands-on work. Prefer something shaped entirely around your organization? We can tailor a longer, in-company format to your projects and pace.

  • What you take away

    You leave with guidelines and best practices for setting up classification systems as ontologies, ready to apply back at your desk. These are the same references our own specialists rely on, and they are yours to keep.

  • Course duration and costs

    The course consists of three workshops, and the coursework can be completed at your own speed. The price varies based on your group size and the format you choose, so please contact us, and we’ll prepare a proposal that suits you.
