Visio is a powerful diagramming tool. The basics are fairly easy to learn, but Visio boasts some features that can transform ordinary IA deliverables into works of art. After this 90-minute session, you will be able to push the envelope with Visio, making diagrams more engaging and compelling. We'll spend a little time on Visio fundamentals, then cover some more advanced topics, look at some essential shortcuts, and also discuss good diagramming techniques.

Although this session won't be hands-on, feel free to email Dan (brown@greenonions.com) with your Visio and/or diagramming questions prior to the tutorial, and we'll be sure to cover it.
