Now Announcing ePublisher Splash Page Design

A training course for document creators who want to take their HTML content to the next level.

The splash page of any HTML document set is the first impression the audience receives for the entirety of the content to follow. In one glance, they can tell if what follows will be helpful or not. Bringing a splash page to the next level means making it more interactive and more informative for the audience and getting that first impression right. With a proper splash page design, the audience gets relevant information quick and easy making content more valuable. ePublisher Splash Page Design teaches a skill set to make the best first impression.

To create ePublisher Splash Page Design training, WebWorks took the best ideas from our custom work and put them into one online training course. These ideas come from many hours of discussion and research over what audiences are expecting from HTML help sets today. WebWorks also looked at how to develop these features in a way that will allow them to dynamically grow with documentation and change with an audience's needs. The end result is a training course that teaches a skill set of features that allows anyone to design a splash page to make the right first impression and increase the value of their documentation.
