In order to help to promulgate technical knowledge regarding the LIXI standards and Credit Application Language (CAL), LIXI Ltd is sponsoring a training course for developers at the upcoming OASIS Open Standards conference. Due to be held at the Grace Hotel in Sydney on October 1, this course will be aimed at explaining the technical key concepts and design ideas behind the ongoing LIXI program.

Designed to help software developers and business analysts to get up to speed with LIXI, this course will be taught by CAL Working Group convenor and LIXI board member, Barry Thomas.
