CoreFiling today announced the availability of a series of
'hands-on' training courses designed to demystify the technology and
techniques required to create a successful XBRL (eXtensible Business
Reporting Language) business reporting project.
Many organisations keen to embrace the new XBRL technology are now
reaching the stage where they have grasped the basic concepts behind
this emerging business standard. However, understanding the benefits
is only the first step. Today, the principal issue is how to turn the
theory behind XBRL into tangible results for the business.
In offering its XBRL courses, CoreFiling aims to provide delegates
with an experience as close to reality as possible. Courses will take
advantage of XBRL tools already in active use in some of the world's
leading XBRL projects, giving delegates an opportunity to learn, for
example, how to build taxonomies and validate data against the XBRL
2.1 standard.
CoreFiling will be offering courses initially in Europe and
Australasia. The first courses will take place in Amsterdam during
October and will cover the following topics:
XBRL taxonomy development (16-17th October)
This course is aimed at external reporting professionals,
corporate accountants, auditors, regulators and analysts
XBRL for the XML aware (18-19th October)
IT professionals from accounting software vendors, regulators,
analyst and credit firms will benefit from this practical introduction
to the future of financial disclosure
