"Amber helped our Kaplan Professional Education team in our first unified content strategy using DITA. DITA has allowed us to use a single-source of content for a variety of outputs, saving us countless hours of work. With Amber’s guidance, we successfully deployed an information architecture and developed complex XSLT transformations. Additionally, Amber helped us demonstrate the return on investment to the organization and provided training to ensure that our team gained the skills and knowledge to further develop and manage the model ourselves."
