The three-day NIEM Technical Training curriculum is designed for developers and practitioners in the field to provide the information needed to enable them to build applications using NIEM and use it effectively. The training course guides students through NIEM in a structured process and will cover the following modules:
NIEM 100 - General Overview of NIEM
NIEM 101 - Technical Introduction to NIEM
NIEM 200 - NIEM Project Management
NIEM 300 - IEPD Discovery and Development
NIEM 301 - NIEM Advanced Technical Concepts
NIEM 302 - Construct and Validate an IEPD
NIEM 303 - Assemble, Publish, and Implement an IEPD
This course focuses on an overview of NIEM and practical implementation techniques, and includes hands-on exercises reinforcing key NIEM concepts. Lessons will guide participants through the XML terminology and concepts specifically used by NIEM, as well as the process of building Information Exchange Package Documentation (IEPD) through instructor led exercises. The exercises guide students through the step by step process of building a NIEM conformant exchange by creating an exchange content model, mapping objects to NIEM, schema subset generation, development of extension and exchange schemas, and packaging and distribution methods. The course instructor will spend time bringing all of the components of the training together, providing examples, and responding to questions. Students should expect to participate in exercises and are strongly encouraged to bring a laptop for class work.
