Progress Education Services offers a comprehensive and flexible curriculum for core OpenEdge products. Both classroom training and self-paced training options are available. Education Services continually offers new courses to address the business needs of our user community. For up-to-date information, use the Progress Software Corporation Education Services Web site at: http://www.progress.com/education/index.htm.
Our classroom courses are taught by expert instructors in state-of-the-art facilities located around the globe. For the convenience of our customers, on-site training also is available for those who wish to take our courses directly at their workplace. For those who prefer learning at their own pace, we offer a full range of self-paced training, e.g., Web-Based Training (WBT), Computer-Based Training (CBT), and Text-Based Training + CD (TBT).
By taking one of our courses, you receive OpenEdge education from professionals who have made software training a career focus. Our instructors are specialists who receive complete technical training in all aspects of OpenEdge products. Our highly skilled course developers work together with the OpenEdge software engineers to create the best possible training.
All our courses, whether classroom or self-paced, are task-based. That is, they emphasize what you need to know to do your job and how you can leverage the capabilities of OpenEdge products to maximize your investment in Progress technology.
All our courses provide ample opportunity for practice through hands-on, real-world labs. In each course, you build an application that simulates a real-world environment. When you complete your training, you can take your newly built application with you for future development at your own site.
An OpenEdge education provides you with:
- The highest quality course materials for classroom and self-paced instruction, developed by expert course developers working closely with OpenEdge software engineers.
- Experienced instructors with access to Progress Software Corporation benchmarking and source materials.
- WBT and CBT options that enable students to learn what they need, when they need it, without leaving the office.
