Information Framework (SID) Practitioners’ Course

Practical guidance in applying, extending and using the Information Framework

The Information Framework Practitioners’ course offers theory and practice on the use of the Information Framework (SID), including how to extend and implement it by applying modeling patterns and extension guidelines. For example, learn how to add a Time Zone ABE or a Party Site ABE to the Framework, or how to add additional types of Cards to the Resource domain without changing the model.

Walk through examples of how TM Forum members are putting the Information Framework to use in their organizations, and learn practical guidelines to transform the information model to the data model.

Through instructor-facilitated exercises in which you will practice newly gained skills, this workshop enables you to effectively put the Information Framework to use within your own organizations.

Open Digital Framework Overview is recommended
